Hi: I noticed something in the date on a 1966 penny. The second 6 seems to be more spread out on the base of the 6.. Is this an anomoly or just the product of a bit of wear and tear? The penny in question is the second 1966 penny I uploaded. The first 1966 penny is just for comparison.

Also, the third pic shows a 1987D that may have something strange going on with the punchmark. Any feedback on these two would be appreciated. Thank you!

The 66 is circulation wear... The 87D appears to be Post Strike Damage (PSD) looks like it took a hit and heavy die wear!!!
