Silviosi, I have supplied authoritative sources for the correct view that spike heads are considered errors. Specifically, Errors and Varieties, and Cuds on Coins; both are of the view that they are errors.
What authoritative source are you relying on for saying that spike heads are not errors?

They have always been called errors. So they are errors.

MB? You can give us here the subcategories of errors and varieties? I will give with no problem. "MB" to who you give authorities advice I have no IDEA. It is good for you and hope successfully. The thing it is that the terminology I say it is agree by anyone.

PS. You want to stay against Malone, Dimond and Weinberg? Tell me more about your expertise, I will employ you.

Spike Heads (Die Cracks) are errors. They are fluid and constantly changing during the stamping process. A variety remains constant.

They are die events, not a die variety. A variety has the issue from coin number 1. Die events happen as the die ages.

Just to be clear, die events are unintended; they are not supposed to happen. That's why they are known as ERRORS.
