Looks like a normal mint mark from the last images thanks. But the reverse has a struck through error on the right base side.

Coop, to your comment that reverse was struck through... If it was, I think the memorial base there would have been flattened more with less detail.

Is is possible that there was a void there already in the planchet first and when the coin was struck, the base formed a bit -- but only so much because of the existing depression? I'm thinking that way because of coins I've seen with similar voids in the planchet in clear fields. They have that rough texture...

Can you comment on that possibility, please? Thanks in advance.
Rest in Peace

It looks like the planchet was imperfect.

I do see something on the '1' in the date and the 'LI' in liberty....

Copper cent in AU in the trash? *sigh* makes you wonder what goes into landfills accidentally each and every day.

Lot's of old couches and chairs filled with old coins and old jewelry, Drew. Next time you see a really old couch or chair set on the curb for pick up, stop, pull out your pocket knife, cut the underside liner, and fill your pockets.

Yes drew I can only imagine. I work with trash and I'll pull out the coins if I hear them. Usually jingling at the bottom of the bag. Lol.
