It can't be a plating error as 1942-43 Tombac Nickels were not plated.
Looks like some sort of environmental damage.

Re: U.S. error penny
The OP stated in his write up that it is a 1982 zinc large date.

Re: 2015 1$ lamination error or type of error?
Not a lamination error, just some discolouring on the reverse.
You can’t have a lamination on this Loonie as they are made from multi-ply brass plated steel.

Re: 2003 penny struck thru grease
Looks like a regular 2003 CENT that has some environmental damage.
Where do you see it being struck through grease?

A clip that size should show a Blakesley effect. There is no sign of even the slightest one.

Re: Straight clipped planchet?
I agree
That has been done after it left the mint.
Just a damaged Toonie.

At first glance I thought it was genuine but upon closer inspection I would have

Nothing happened at the mint.
It is just circulation wear and damage.

Looks like it has taken a hit. PMD of some kind, certainly not an error.

These prices are pretty close.
They list your bill at $369.00 and the average selling price on eBay is $351.00

Re: U.S. error penny
When posting photos, please show one of each side instead of two of the same side, this can be important when evaluating a coin. As far as your coin goes, the dots are plating bubbles. Eventually they will get bigger and break causing the zinc core to corrode. Copper plated zinc coins are notorious ...
