Looks like a circular "ring" of debris to me. I've seen these on Lincoln cents many times. Crazyb0 explained they were due to the washing process at the mint, I think. If it's raised, it's a die chip.
At any rate, it doesn't appear to be a rare error. Looks like it's worth face value, unfortunately.

A raised portion may also be a very common plating issue of zinc corrosion caused by a foreign element beneath the copper plating and zinc core. These "zinc zits" can sometimes be "deflated" by pressing hard with a toothpick. That is quite large to be a die chip, and too circular for your standard gouge, my guess is zinc rot.

It's just giving the effect of being raised but all details there can be seen its a stain from the rinsing process the stupid black spots that riddle the new cents nothing but a stain keep looking

Just a stain, it's not an error at all. You'll see this a lot on newer cents.

I don't know about these guys but I like. I would not let it go for at least double face value. LOL Rock on and keep looking. Stay positive.  |

The coin is already rare coin only year penny made with "p" Rare? Not at all. They've made 4,361,220,000 of them. If you counted one per second, it would take you 138 years to count them all, so no, not rare at all. |

Yes there is a stain there, there is also a small raised "dot" below the eye, unfortunately that dot is part of the design and is on all 4+ billion 2017 P cents.

Are water stains raised? It's definitely raised on this coin. Like a bump, too hard to take a pic. I'm thinking Cud like the "George Washington booger". Anyways I think it's way cool and if I had money to throw... I'd be all over it. Bet there is someone else out thinking the same. Wink" wink" Anyways I'm obviously a novice but I know a bump when I see a bump. Oh and thanks for the kind welcome. Nothing like a few goobers being clever and silly. Keep up the good work. |

Not a Cud, Cuds always involve the rim. |
