The first one is struck through a capped die. I agree with silverworld on the rest.

Cooper or anyone else,can I see the the difference I need to see for: struck through capped die vs Greaser. Looked wavy so I was thinking Struck Through I could use a lesson on Struck Through Die Cap. Struck Through this and that I do know. This would be helpful. When I looked at that coin last night I was going to write that but just was not sure and was sleepy. Was ready for Bed. Same thing on the War Nickel little wax coin.

Silverworld, the main difference I look for is where the field meets the rim. On a Struck Through Grease error the field leading into the rim will be square. On a struck through die cap error field leading into the rim will have a radius or rounded effect curving up to the top of the rim. In the above coin this is noticeable on the left side only because the lighting was on the right casting a shadow behind the rim on the right side.

Ok,I think I see the big differences.
1.Does the Field/Image look Blurred 2.Does the Field pitch up to the Rim&Rounded Rim
If so Struck Though Die Cap.
2 more too a lot more Questions?
1.Is there a Error that is likely/close looking to other then:
*Struck Through Die Cap *Struck Through Grease *?_____________________?
And
2.Is the Die Cap a Cap? 3.What does the Die Cap Look like? 4.How thick is the Die Cap? 5.Are they tore up after the first strike? 6.How many times can the Run of Coinage be Struck Through the same Die Cap before it get taken off the Die/Removed? 7.How do they remove the Die Caps? 8.What year/years have been zero down to produce most/likely Struck Through Die Cap?(Cent/Nickels/Etc)
I think that is it as far as the questions I can think of,that I am now wondering about.
Anything I am not wondering about that is some more info about STDC,let me know.
O,by the way I do not like them,sorry never been interested in them other then I know they are pretty rare. That I do like but not the coins themselves this is part of why I know very little about them.
Thanks for the above info/links:Pyrbob&SsuperDdave

With the die capped, the edges of the die are not strong. They kind of round toward the edge. Noe on this coin:

1st is definitely struck through capped die. I found one myself (2000 D) and they have a decent premium. $50-100.
