While on the subject of 1983 Lincolns, can you explain to me why some die breaks like the '22 Peace Dollar are valued more than others I've noticed that on the reverse of the '83 Lincoln cent there seems to be a number of them some of which are major especially on the corners of the Memorial. There are one ,two, three or even four. They're not on all coins of course but I have for quite a few. Being a novice it does confuse me. Any explanation on the subject would be appreciated.     

                 What are your thoughts on the R in liberty on this '83. I know it's not possible but almost looks like R over B. I do know that the planchet has what appears bubbles on which may have caused this. Thanks again for your very informative info. 

Once again Greenstang I've learned some very informative information from you. Where I haven't seen this before, I assume that triple MD isn't very common. Again thank you. 

                Seems that there appear to be a number of issues with these new quarters. Can anyone tell me if  this is a triple die or a MD. I'm finding at least in this roll, doubling on a number of coins but I think are MD. This one however has a lot more detail. Any opinions would be appreciated. Sorry for so many questions. I think by your information I can tell the MD at least. I'm still learning however. Thanks again.  

                 Found another oddity in these quarters. This one is in the date. Is this considered a die break. I'm not sure what to think of this. Your input is always welcome. As always thanks in advance

Thanks Greenstang just wanted to clarify  the posting

              Condor101,  I'm not sure how  or why R20coins posted his pictures under my post. Mine are the first one which I wasn't sure if PMD or mint. That 1982 is clearly PMD without question

Thank you greenstang It wouldn't let me load all those pic at once. I didn't think of replying to my post and just add the rest. Thanks again

Thank you Greenstang for the info.  I think that the close up pictures I took and put in the other post you may be able to see what maybe what I think is doubling on the reverse. The marks by the B on the obverse I think are raised. I don't know if the pictures help you or not. Just wondering if I may have found something out of the ordinary.

                A month or so ago I also found 1982-S in a roll of circulated penny which I thought was a good find worth saving.

                        Close up pictures

                    Checking through new roll of quarters found what may be interesting. On the reverse in the slogan " War In The Pacific" I'm not sure if this is machine doubling or not. With the newness of the coin the reflection is bright. Also in the Latin slogan it appears to have doubling as well. Also a dye break by the B. Thoughts? Thank you again in advance I'll send the close ups in the next one. 

I did think that was the case or at least a little of both. Thank you for your in put.

Thanks so much for that information Just Bob and Greenstang. I'm not that interested in what it's worth but for the novelty of it. I think it was an interesting find and I'll tag it and put it away for my grandchildren to enjoy. After all, isn't it what we are all doing with this hobby.   

                Here's the other one I found. I'm not sure if this is from the mint or PMD. I can't make out the year even zooming in real close. Any thoughts?

              I found this one in a roll and  I was wondering if this has any market value. Input would be very welcome. Thank you in advance. I also have another one I'll put in a separate post.

Thank you for that clarification Greenstang It was driving me crazy looking at Jefferson's collar. Your right I can't see the rim to check. Thanks again you're right on things for us newbies

                        First of all I would like to thank all of you who have had an opinion on my 1975 Lincoln. My new question I have for you is that I had sent my 1994-P SMS in for grading and even though I didn't pay an additional charge for attribution it came back a SP68 with a Minor Error- Partial Collar Strike. My question to you all is I don't see this on the coin and is this not a very common error for this coin. Is it possible for you to point it out to me.  I can't seem to find anything on it out there. Thanks guys 

     I'm taking closer pictures that may help clarify as to what may be going on with this coin .I will take it out of the holder if that would help with better pictures. Thank you for your interest in this coin I too thought it was a very strange piece.

 I was wondering if you could confirm that this is a wide AM. It appears to me it is but there is a wider space between the M&E that makes me wonder. I know that the coin isn't in great condition but I think a good find and put it away if it is none the less. Thank you in advance.

Once again I'd like to thank you guys for your knowledge. There's so much variations of issues good and bad with the hobby. It's good to have expert input to our finds. Thanks again

                  I was wondering if anyone has seen this in a coin before and if so what would have caused it.  It looks to me  as though the planchet was the cause. See how many columns there seem to be. Sent it out and came back surface smoothed. Doesn't look sooth on the contrary it looks rough. Your thoughts would be great.

Thank you for that information. I learned something more about the hobby. Thank you for that. Keep up the great work.

                   I'd like your thoughts on this '92-d. To me it doesn't seem to be mechanical but I'm not sure. I know there is no variety for this on the 1992 but just curious. Thanks ahead of time for your input.

Thanks guys I thought so but wanted conformation from the experts. Who knows maybe one day
