This is what I found in $100 of 20c pieces. What are your opinions on the one that looks as though its peeling? there is no damage to the rim or the other side of the coin.

Looks like a planchet flaw on one and a heap of Cuds on the other coins

Not really, more of a curiosity. Yours appears to be a 1971 20c coin.

I have quite a few 20c ones, but 50c, 10c and 5c are a bit scarcer in my experience.

Also, most of them are really unique, the same flaw is rarely seen in the same place on the same denomination coin, as it's a flaw in the manufacture of the planchet.

I'd estimate $1 - $2 per coin for 20c examples. Maybe $1 - $2 more for 50c, 10c or 5c.

$1 and $2 examples are fairly common, might be worth 2-3 time face value each.

They are sometimes called lamination peels / flaws and some can be very drastic, in which case the value goes up.
