From the pictures, all I see is a badly worn, corroded, damaged cent. Often, random damage can be mistaken for all kinds of anomalies, sort of like seeing images in clouds. You can post better, close up pictures of what you are seeing, but don't get your hopes up! |

The first thing I look at is the 2, the shape and the distance from the rim. On a small date there is space enough between the 2 and the rim for another 2, on the large date the 2 is quite close to the rim. Focusing on the 2 is much easier than going by the 8. |

You are on the right track if you are going to stop looking at every coin for imperfections, because almost all coins have imperfections and they almost always mean nothing. Study up on legit sites like varietyvista.com, doubleddie.com and error-ref.com. I don't know where you got the information on the nickel, but I'd stay away from there. |
