Really neat!

First coin looks like metal lamination flaw. Second is a plug in error.

Errors seem to be particularly common on this type, especially the second one.

Thanks a lot gxseries !
:
With all my respect dear Numismat what exactly means in the numismatic world the word common ? one in one thousand ? 1 in 5.000 ? 1 in 100.000 ?...

Maybe if you are talking about the next coin example of the same type ( Guacari ) ,you can say that is -more or less- common ( you have to look maybe four or five thousand coins to find one ,but on the first example ...I beg your pardon but it is the first coin with that big lamination error that I have seen in the last 10 years !...and what about the second example and the four that I am including here ? ....I donīt think that they are commons because the exact big errors that they have are very very difficult to find and I assume ........that maybe you have to look 20.000 coins or more to find some thing similar .Anyway those are no more that personal speculations. And let me say you something my dear Numismat, maybe I am an erroraholic or something like that, but I really donīt care if they are common or not : I just love all of them ! (as a father with all his child) Best

Hello everybody : could this error in this 5 cents Colombian coin of 1974 be considered a Die Break error or is a lamination error ?.Thanks in advance !

It's definitely lamination. This happens when part of the planchet peels off.
