I am starting to think that I have found someones collection that they dumped, not knowing what they had! I never found so many doubled dies, die cracks, die breaks, RPMs, Die clashes. Sorry I gotta post such long posts, but its better than doing them all one by one! :D
Anyways, Starting off in no particular order.

1983 Denver Lincoln Memorial Cent- Cracked skull with well placed split plating. Some of us know that Lincoln was shot in the back of the head with a 44' Single Shot Derringer. I wonder, if this die crack is in the actual spot that he got shot..... hmmmmm.... Anyways.. Here we go! Lining your eye Straight down starting from the O, and ending in the D in GOD.

Next up is a mouthful, we got a 2014 Philadelphia Shield Cent. Cracked skull with die chips, and with maybe a strike through debris on obverse. Reverse Theres a die chip at the top of the shield. Then theres a break that starts from the scroll, webs down to the T, then webs to N, E, C. Pretty cool. Spiderman has been at the mint apparently...

I like the last few pictures where a mint worker was attempting to polish out the clash!

I simply prefer going with: "It's about time I caught another decent box..!"
