Picked these up tonight....Any thoughts? The first is a brockage, but I don't know why there is the lump on the neck. The other side is a simple obverse. It is not that clear in the photo but there is a ghost of the reverse.  Here is a neat quarter....  Despite the label, I think the cent is more like 85 degrees     I picked up a whole raft of off centres, but I like the nickels the most...  Edited by Smallcentguy

Nice error`s, the nickels look like there under the cardboard part of the capsule`s until you notice there an error.  |

Love that 1967 cent... reminds me of another one, that got through your fingers some time ago...

there are two but not that interesting..... a 1970 "struck from worn dies" with poor detail in the flowers and a 1983 with a medium sized planchet flaw.....

Heh.... try and find a fully struck 1970 business strike - they don't exist... Bring the 1983 to Coin Expo, be prepared to trade it away!

My last one for now.... I think the coin at left was struck out of collar....? It is about 2 millimeters larger in diameter than the normal coin at right. The denticles are longer than they should be and the coin has a beveled edge rather than a straight edge.   |

Very nice broadstrike, Mike will like seeing that one... you will have lots for show-and-tell-and-beers...

Yeah I bought it.....but I will end up with the things I want more or less for free from it....
I picked up another lot of maybe 600 coins where I am pretty sure I will get about 598 for free.....
