I'm surprised you kept all three of those coins and then found that they are very close to being identical to each other. Nice finds.  |

I'll bet there's more out there just like them.

That would be my guess.
They are pretty consistent damage.

Good eye. What are the odds out of 1000 coins?

It makes me wonder what kind of machines these coins were being sent through back in the day. I have a few from the early 1940s that show the same type of damage, but I haven't found any later dates that show the same damage; similar, yes, but not close enough.

In Memory of Tootallious 3-31-1964 to 4-15-2020

That's very strange.
Errers and Varietys.

That is very odd. I may have to go back and check my 1930's bag and see if I find anything similar.

John , if you find 3 more 1936 Wheaties with the exact same problemed "6" then we could have a possible new unique mint error .  |

These are different mint marks. Would it be possible to have a date error from different mints? I'm not that familiar with the specifics.

- probably from a coin wrapper machine?
