I'm a collector of a multitude of things and recently I've been looking at silver coins and representive money to collect. But to start I decided on looking through my pennies.. found a few wheat and a few that may be errors... please help me become coin literate! Are these errors or crap?

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 04/02/2021 02:15 am Ok, We'd love to help you, but not like this. It is much, much easier if you show us one coin per thread, and photograph the front (obverse) and the back (reverse) of the entire coin, then closeups of any areas of special interest to you. And it is helpful if you describe the "issue" with your coin, then try to show us. It is difficult and confusing to try to address multiple coins in one thread. Thank you, and welcome! to the CCF!

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/02/2021 09:09 am That is a different issue. It is called Ridge Ring. Neither are premium coins. On is a post strike event, the other is a die event. This happened a lot on the dies on the 1980's Zincolns. CoopHome: What is Ridge Ring? Why does this happen?
