Hello, this is my first post. I have a few minor error coins that I've kept out of my change over the years and this one I'm unsure about. It sort of looks like damage from it being beat up but for some reason it also looks like it could have been an error of some sort. What do you all think?

Also I apologise for the pics being not perfect quality, they are taken on a smart phone and I had to screenshot my pics and crop them to make the file size small enough to post. You can see the damage though fairly well.

Not an error, it's PMD
It' s only an error if it happens during the striking of the coin
and what you have there would be impossible to happen
at that time. What else have you got to show us?

Okay, I thought it may have been just damage. Worth checking though I guess

I'll post up a few more that I'm confident are errors, I'd be glad to here everyone's thoughts on them as well.

1995 P quarter, off center strike.

I'll post a few more later.

Need a pic of the reverse but looks like a MAD as of now. Not off enough for a premium though.

That makes sense as the reverse looks normal. I also have another which does show some misalignment on both sides, but it's less off centered than this one. Probably not worth anything, but looks neat so I kept it.

I also have a dime that looks like it maybe didn't get struck hard enough as well as a nickel that the lettering is faint in some places and edges, the corners are instead of being square are slightly chamfored looking and not from wear and tear I don't believe. I will post them this evening when I get some opinions on them as well.

If you post more coins, please post each one on a different thread.
Their should be a separate thread for each coin with the appropriate title.
