    Don’t see anything there that is worth more than face value.   
    Even if there was an error on the 2023 quarter, it certainly wouldn’t  be worth thousands.

    It would still fit in the category of a floating roof. The main thing is that there are no
    vertical lines showing on the roof.

    If that is the same coin as your previous post, then the answers are the same.   
    Reposting it doesn’t change the facts.

    The 1895S is counterfeit, not sure about the others.

    The no FG is part of a floating roof along with the weak Lincoln.  
    They are all caused by the overpolishing of the die.

    Hearing aids were invented in the early 1800’s. Before that they used to use what was called a trumpet.

    I would say no, it was done after the cent left the mint.   
    There is a buildup of copper around the edge that would not happen on a true clip.

    If you are going to weigh coins, you should always weigh them to a minimum of two decimals.   
    One decimal is not accurate enough.

    Also the weight tolerance on nickels is .19g so your coin is only .01g.  
    underweight which could accounted for by wear.

    Welcome to the Chat Box

    Not an error, PMD ( Post Minting Damage).  
    There is no way for that to happen when the coin was struck.

    No. 
    A devise is the principal design element. As a crack was not part of the principal design,   
    it would not be included as part of the design. A crack is part of the minting process.

    The fact that it sticks to a magnet is all you need to know that it is a steel cent.   
    A copper cent would not stick. It is just a damaged coin know that it has been plated.
