On the clear see through Cud type anomaly the motto seems to be engraved on reverse as you can see " tsurt ". And South of " LIBERTY " there seems to be the number " 8 ".

I thin we are going to need clearer images to help you with this one. also if you could include images of both complete sides of the cent, that would help.
you may have a double struck coin, or a garage job.

Looks like you have some glue on your coin. Maybe it will come off?

I agree. Better images are needed. Full images of both sided. If the coin is bent, then it is damaged.

Your "clear see through Cud type anomaly" is almost certainly glue.

Definitely glue or some clear substance applied to the coin, another coin pressed into it and then the gunk hardened. If it is a water based glue and extened soak in water should cause it to become milky in color and come off. If it isn't water based a soak in acetone may remove it. If it is an epoxy based adhesive then it may be there for good. Or a liquid nitrogen immersion may cause it to pop off due to differing thermal expansion and contraction rates.

so socked it in water and it didnt come off, also in acetone and got the same result. "hypothetically speaking", lets say it happens to be a genuine error, what variety would this coin be categorized as?

Its 100% not an error, as such it cannot be categorized. just glue.

My understanding is that there is no possible way that such an error could happen in the minting process. So hypothetically speaking if it was a genuine mint error, it would have to be a new unheard of error.

and also conder101 I was thinking about your thought on another coin being pressed against the see through anomaly. if it was so, I thought, maybe I would feel some kind of texture on it. thinking that I would feel as if the motto would be indented into the anomaly, it happened to be that the surface is smooth, almost as if it was stamped on the other side of the anomoly. really weird. please let me know what your oppinions are. Again thank you for taking the time to help me out
