I love these beasts.
-83 had a lot going on that year. Plenty of examples of all kinds of errors and varieties.
-That 2012 and 1997 are ones I haven't come across before.

Other die damage that I have come across seem to be much more subtle. I guess that is why the severe ones always make me smile.

Enjoy your Labor Day cookouts!

Bought a few rolls of BU 70-S and did not find any small dates or doubled dies but did find this guy. Looks like a pre-cud on the north end of the obverse too.

Not sure if this image will come out well, I'm on mobile. Also not sure what this error actually is or if it counts here but I just found it today and like it quite a bit.

@peasantking your DC quarter is just post mint damage, not the result of a strike with a damaged die.

Thanks to all for taking the time to look and add comments or more examples "to feed the need".(or even links to ones others have come across.)

That obverse Cud on that '70S is strong enough to affect the reverse strike details and rim.
That '74 half might be struck through something if there's no damage on the reverse opposite to the incuse area.
The mint got their money's worth on the reverse die for that '54S. Nice rim Cud and "wheat bugs".
