I'm new to coin collecting and while going through a coffee can of pennies I ran across this 1919 S Wheat penny. I was curious if this was mint damage or post mint damage. If mint damage, would it be worth grading, since the coin is well circulated?

Thanks for all of the input/help it's greatly appreciated.

Post-strike damage, yes. Kinda interesting. Hold onto it as a fun curiosity.

This is a vise job, I can see repetitive sequences on this coin from something that was pressed against it.
