These are two Lincoln Memorial Cents that I found searching some bank rolls that I picked up at one of my local banks. I need some help determining whether these are weak strikes or strike-thru grease errors.

The two pics below this paragraph is the 1st Lincoln and it is a copper that has a weight of 3.09g and it is a 1969 d or s. I can't quite make out the mintmark when applying different lighting and positioning.

The two pics below this paragraph is the 2nd Lincoln that I found in a roll and is a zinc that has a weight of 2.51g and there is no date that is visible.

The first one looks like a Dryer Coin.

I think the 2nd one is a capped die. Nice find!
