Just put a bunch back into circulation. lots of delam on dates that made me initially rate them as doulbed in some way. Ok the first is a 1982 coin with a strange 2. I will keep it in any case cause it is probably PMD but it is cool. Second is what I think is a clipped 1980 penny. Has what I think is Blakesley effect on the numbers near the clip. Last in what I think is a 1952 Franklin s/s. Looking forward to comments. Best regards, Rich Report this Post to the Staff

The next is a partial clip, definitely a "mint" error, keep-able, worth a couple bucks The 52S is a possible RPM, can't really tell, it's upside down..., has the characteristics of one instead of plain MD, a North punch.

Keep the Clipped Planchet and put it in a 2X2 flip case before the Zinc Rot gets worse and don't spend it. The second coin might be an RPM, but I am not sure on that. Errers and Varietys.
