However I did notice a weird detail on the back above the pillars of the memorial. A round dot that I didn't see on any of my other pennies. If someone can help me identify what it is I'd be grateful. Report this Post to the Staff

Also that dot is a plating blister. Your cent is also suffering from zinc rot. Spend it before it gets worse. Edited by JimmyD 10/19/2025 10:31 am Report this Post to the Staff
