I picked up this coin. It looks like a planchet error. Can anyone tell me if this is a lrage or small date?

That is not a planchet error, the coin is corroded and damaged

But I figured it wasnt a bad deal for 10 bucks as a filler. Still not sure if its small date or large though.

No expert but I would guess large date, But then again I have never seen a 1957 in person. Just from pics.

My 1857 large cent is the "large date" (N-1) variety. The date on JohnnyD's coin is corroded but it does appear to be the same type. Here's my coin for comparison:
