You can't have reeding on top of the rim. Damage that has been intentionally done.

 .. I agree that someone took some sort of tool and designed his own "reeded" cent.

Quote: Looks like pre 1982....don't see any zinc core. So we have it narrowed down to 1959 to 1981 and some of 1982 for a date.. the blurry initials are of no use in helping to closing in on the date.
