20 cent 1979-missing milled edge

missing milled edge
20 cent 1988 with milled edge. Diameter 23.50mm
20 cent 1979 missing milled edge. Diameter 23.50mm

I did read in internet on missing edge lettering of US Presidential Dollar coins but I never found any of Malaysian 50 cent missing edge lettering, but some how rather I found this beautiful missing milled edge. I've gone through all corners of this coin and did not find any human made error. Further more, the diameter is same as the rest of the milled edge. What say you guys..?

5 cent 2005 ( S7EN)

Quite interesting error, which I would refer it as a 'die chip' but what made it interesting the die chip feature is '7'. As such it read as S7EN.....what say you guys...?

long cud 5 cent 1996

I did read an article in internet about this error. There is extra metal along the circle of the field rim and called long cud. I might be wrong. All comments are welcome. Tq

10 cent 1981 extra dot and die clashed

Die clashed on the reverse of the same coin 

Die clashed error happens when the coin dies striking the coin without a  planchet between them. This causes an imprint of each die to be left on the opposing die face resulting an impression of the obverse die is left on the reverse die and vice versa. 

Two extra dots in red circle and extra metal  in blue circle on the same coin
