It doesn't look like a normal pocket worn piece. A Dryer Coin, maybe, mostly hitting along its rim as it was being tumbled? Colligo ergo sum

Probably something even more severe than that. Whatever the cause, not natural wear.

Just found another low ball cent. Could use a touch more wear though. It may be a 1917.   Edited by Mark1959

Mark1959,
That does look very worn. A lot of history there with a long time of circulation.

Yet another British penny I chanced upon today, albeit certainly not quite so far gone so as to compete with the ones triggersmob posted just a few days ago. But I thought this specimen had a particularly pleasing appearance. As a general type, these must be the most common lowballs on the face of the earth!   Colligo ergo sum
