Nothing too special in here just what I have found over the past couple of days. Late at night nothing on TV and I'm bored.

This 20c has very weak obverse legend. Looks like quite a heavily filled die, probably grease. Reverse is a little weak around the rims as well.

This 20c has some strange PMD. Looks like it has been hit with something or placed in a vice. I think a vice is more likely as it is pretty smooth and not indented like I would suspect with a hammer or something similar.

Next up is a 1968 2c (i got 11 for free today from the nice teller at the bank who had saved them for me ) with the SD initial on the reverse very weakly struck. When I look at it with a loupe the D actually looks more like a C as it is broken. Die looks like it is is close to being one of the no SD varieties Trout posted about a while back.

Last but not least is not an error, maybe a variety.. I don't know. A Perth halfpenny with nice rainbow lustre/toning. I like this one.
