Re: 2021 Bluenose Struck Through 18 coin sequence?
Something I have done over the years, when the new coins came out each year, I would buy a master pack for the store, go through the rolls looking for that type of error. Every so often you found something. Lots of fun, enjoy!

2010 1 Cent incomplete clip
Obviously this coin got caught in something! My question, is it post production garage job or the real thing. You can see where the pressure has broken the obverse surface. Full unc red. Any thoughts?

1978 1 Cent Reverse struck through Grease on 100% of flan.
This is the most complete covering of grease that i have ever seen. 100% of the reverse's surface is rough and the strike is the complete surface.

1964 Obverse die crack
This die crack is very slight but runs from the 4th leaf in her wreath to the bottom of her shoulder. Since it is so light, the break would disappear after some circulation. The coin in the picture is a MS-63-64

1952 George VI Cent with Orange SkinReverse
This is a 1952 George VI cent with pebbling on the reverse top part of the coin. I found a reference to this as a surface material such as grease or other liquid being on the die or the planchette.

1952 George VI Cent MS-64 RED w/ Rev. Die Breaks
From am original roll, the reverse has die breaks running from C in Canada to 9, and then from 9 to 1 and from 9 to leaf. You also have a light die break C in cent to E and then E to N.
You will note in the pictures, I shot two with natural light and 2 with LED to highlight the errors.

2005 P 1945-2005 Victory
Bought a part of an original roll and noted that there is a chip on the inside of the P causing the "P" to have a wider upper stroke. Please see attached photos.
