Please explain where you see an error. It makes it easier on us to help you. At a quick glance, all I see is damage and some minor die chips worth 1 cent each.

The 1967 coin is damage from a coin rolling machine. The rest are so minor, that they are not worth anything over face value.

I will speak up, even though I wield no clout. My standing opinion has long been, that if you hold the coin in your hand, a foot or two away from your face, and cannot see the error (as in it does not jump out) then it's not worth fretting. Now, documented die variations are different - but as an example a legit 1947 dot coin, will always show, as will a 1964 EWL nickle - and I think those are fine examples of error coins which have stood the test of time, and handily pass my "arms length test".
Being able to zoom in on coins is really neat, but once you start magnifying things, your are bound to see "errors" that cannot be otherwise revealed with the naked eye.

unruhjonny .. You are quite right. To me, some high mag photos or scope shots show lots of "errors" that are not errors or varieties at all. If you take shots at 40-60-100X, then any imperfection seems to qualify (in their mind) as a rare error worth big bucks!

Personally the bigger the error the better for me however there are some who enjoy collecting very minor error coins. Kianluis, if you like it and find it interesting then keep it and keep looking for other variety and or error coins.
