while I was waiting for my post on 1993 d penny rpm. i decided to bore you with this dime. it could just be a lamination error, or a die crack error that shattered the clad. but really. if you are just going to say environmental damage, don't bother responding. because I found doubling and faulty core error as well. I just want simple conformation that this is indeed an error coin. I've read your heavy and high handed comment you give us newbies. and all I am looking for is constructive criticism. don't just read and walk away. thats insulting. I spend hours peeling over rolls to find these coins I post. sorry it won't post the back image is to big.  |

The first dime pic looks like it is suffering from heat damage. I won't comment on the remaining pics since it would only confuse this thread. One coin per thread if you please. Also, starting off with negative attitude isn't the way to get informed responses from the members.

All you are showing is damage on the clads, zinc rot on the cent, a deep scratch on the dime, and some kind of toning on the Texas quarter.  |

@fran, the "one coin per thread" guideline is in place to prevent threads like this one, where there is a mish-mash of different coins, some not fully identifiable. These types of threads may get you rapid-fire responses, but aren't conducive to longer term learning for all of our participants. Therefore, I'm going to lock this thread.
Also, please take a deep breath and avoid coming in hot with your next post. Everyone is here to learn and as @mrt mentioned, a negative attitude won't get you very far. If you feel like someone is mistreating you, the appropriate way to handle this is by clicking on the "report this post to the staff" link. Thx.

You have placed us in something of a conundrum. You have requested we reply to your topic and not simply ignore it. You have also demanded that we affirm your already-determined opinion that it is indeed an error coin, and forbidden us from declaring that it is environmental damage, corrosion, carpark roadkill, or any other non-error-based explanation. So, for the vast majority of us that know or strongly believe that your coins are indeed not errors or varieties, there is nothing for us to say in our mandatory reply, other than outlining the paradox you have created for us.
The vast majority - the vast majority - of odd-looking coins you might find in change are odd-looking because they are damaged, not because they have some kind of mint error on them. Valuable mint errors are valuable because they're really, really rare. There's an awful lot of misinformation and disinformation out there on the Internet, places that are lying to people and telling them that their damaged coins are in fact rare and valuable errors. This forum is not one of those places. We feel sorry for the people who have been lied to, and try as hard as we can to gently correct them. Sometimes, people would prefer to remain in darkness than be illuminated, and they lash out and get angry with the people who are trying to help them.
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis

Well said @Sap and Spence.
Please come back and post up your coins with useable images and without any conditions or expectations.
Give us an honest attempt to explain what WE see on your coins.
