Would this be considered a missing clad layer? Weighs 3.06 grams. TY for your opinions! It has some staining on the obverse but sure looks like missing clad layer to me.

All Lincoln cents dated 1981 and prior are 95% copper. These are not clad.

Can't tell if this is a stain or if there is a ridge to it, it's a lamination.

TY I think its just a stain. So given it's not missing clad, I guess I'm relegated to environmental damage that turned it gray/steel like in color.

If incuse, it might be a lamination issue. But if it is level with the fields it may just be a stain. Hard to tell for sure from the images provided.
