2001 Lincoln's Toupee

Doesn't it look as if Lincoln is losing his toupee? I found this unusual on this 2001 cent. Anybody else ever noticed this?

I know my photos aren't the greatest, but I hope that you can see the crack that runs from the center top of Lincoln's head all the way down around his throat (Looks like someone had it in for him and slit his throat, ugh.), goes down his lapel then up and under the date to the rim. BTW it doesn't go to the rim up top. This could be the gnarliest crack I've ever seen, and there are 2 small ones on the back as well. The way it goes under the date makes me think it was on the planchet before the die strike. Tell me what you see on this poor coin.

Is this all post mint damage or did it begin life with lamination issues? Always difficult to identify this kind of missing parts. Thanks.

I have several Indian Head nickels where the dates have worn off. I guess I could spend them; however I hesitate to do this. What would you do with them?

I think the date on this SL quarter is 1930. Would like to see what you think. Also would this coin be worth anything other than melt value? It appears to be a Philly with no mint mark where it should be. Gigi

What is up with this 1963 D cent. Is it just wear? The finish looks so strange. Reverse has little finish at all.

Opinions on this coin. Looking at coppercoins, this could be a doubling in several areas. I always get answers about split serifs ( I think there are some.) but does extra thickness not play a part? I still get confused.

I saw this coin in a roll of old-ish coins. It stood out due to its luster, but it had a glob of crud? on it and I couldn't help myself. I wiped it with some MS70 and a cotton swab. It brought out this rainbow hue...iridescent . The photos don't begin to show how much. Did I ruin a coin that someone might have wanted?

So now I look at every kind of money that comes anywhere near me. (Yes, I have issues.) I got a $1 Bill in change. The serial number is very low.
H 00000039 B- a 2017. It's circulated but in very good condition. I know this is a coin community, but does anyone collect serial number currency to advise me as to how to sell. Is Ebay the best idea?
