Hello Fellow Numismatists!

I discovered these coins while coin roll hunting and based on other photographs of pennies Struck Through Grease I believe these pennies have the same error. I would appreciate it if you could weigh in on your opinions.

1982 Penny

Yes bottom 2. Top one is over polished die - very common to over polish in that area on Memorial cents.
Rest in Peace

#1 & #3 both are over polishing problem, note the "wide" appearance to letters of motto, #2 most likely struck Tutu

crazyb0, I kind of doubt that the mint would overpolish a die so much so that the near entirety of the word liberty gets polished off, I'm kinda leaning towards Greaser for $3
