I was just curious. I purchased a roll of 25 cents and inside where all whale coins or beluca, which ever you prefer lol. I noticed a common error in these coins in 6 of the coins in the whole roll, I found that the letter R in regina had a bad edge on the tip of the R. The good ones looked smooth as the error one where not. Can anyone confirm they're findings as I want to see how wide this error is. I'm sorry in dont have a pic as its really small for a camera, I'm hoping to purchase a USB Microscope soon. Thanks.

I've found a bunch like that, too. Some look like die chips and the others, a plating issue. Not really an error, just poor quality control. I've tossed them back.
Rest in Peace
