to the CCF Looks like it might be a zinc bubble. Take a tooth pick and see if you can pop it.

I agree with a bubble. It is a copper plating issue.

So this wouldn't be considered an error coin. I appreciate everybody helping me out on the coin as well.

There also appears to be a hole in the left planter on the stairs cause by the same effect.

A hole in the copper plating allows air to enter and oxidize the zinc.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

It's raised up . If you were to push the plating back down, if you could. seems lthere would be too much material to go back in place. I'm going to take the advice from seven people that's it a blister/ bubble It just looks like it was stamped in almost. I'll keep looking through my Pennies.

No. The plating would expand to a certain point, after that it would rupture. It's just a cent so that's all it will ever be worth, so take a toothpick and see if you can rub the plating off at that site.
