The center one looks like it was sanded down. The one on the right looks like a casino nickel.

Train coins tend to be lopsided, like early cobs.

Ausjack, your coins are clear examples of Mint error.

The right hand one was made when someone dropped some steel wool into the machine.

The middle one was created during some after work drinks at the Mint when one of the workers spilled his beer.

So hang onto these coins because they will be worth a fortune on ebay
