Found these 2 while hunting some Canadian rolls. The first, is a 92D which I always check for the Close AM, but what I found seems to be a DD-misaligned. There is shadowing around most of the lettering and numbering but I'm not an expert which is why I am posting here for some of you all to look at and help me with it. It's an interesting first error find for me.

The second one is a 94D that has a huge Cud on the south east part of the D. The picture isn't really great, but you can see it for sure.

So there they are. I cannot seem to find any examples of these searching online, so I'm hoping someone who knows about these kinds of errors can maybe fill me in.

Thanks in advance,

The 92' is Die Deterioration, the 94' is a gas bubble under the plating. Both are common problems with no added value.

The 1992 Reverse has split plating on the outside of the devices hear the rim. The 1994 is also split plating. After the plating splits, air get to the zinc underneath. Then zinc rot sets in which you can see on the mint mark. Just a bad thing to happen to a zincoln. Spend them.

The reason I thought the 94-d was a DD offset is because of the flattened portion in the Northwest field of the coin near the rim under the "IN GOD WE TRUST". It starts off well under the tops of the letters in IN GOD WE, and then is almost level with the top of the second T in Trust. I don't see the split plating in this coin to be honest.
