Starting going through my 2009 cents and found this. Is this an error, and if so, what kind?

It looks like a doubled die reverse, not an error but a variety. A better photo might help determine which one it is.

Thanks for the input. Sadly, that is the best picture I can get, you won't believe how hard it is to take photos of coins with an iPad

Is it 2009D or 2009P?
Looks like it could be: 2009 1¢ FY WDDR-043 found here: http://doubleddie.com/60701.html

You'd be lucky if it is, that's one of the best of varieties. The listed values are:
AU = $17, MS60 = $25, MS63 = $35, MS65 = $50

Get more boxes, they might be more in your area!

That second one is a different variety. I'm thinking it's 2009 1¢ FY WDDR-014 on http://doubleddie.com/60701.html which is AGAIN a best of variety

Values: AU = $15, MS60 = $17, MS63 = $25, MS65 = $35

What does the whole part after the date and mint mark means?

There are multiple sources for double dies:
WEXLER'S: 2009(date) (1 cent) FY(Formative Years[this is the design type of the 2009 cent]) WDDR(Wexler's Double Die Reverse) - 014(The number Wexler's gave the double die, I think usually it's in order of when it was found?)

COPPERCOINS: 2009P(date/mint) - 1DR(1 cent/Double Reverse) - 012(The number CopperCoins assigned to the same variety)

So since there are different places to find the listings there are often different "Main" numbers (014, 012). If you 2x2 your two 2009 cents you can write both coppercoins and/or Wexler :D

There are tons of Doubled dies for that year and design. It is like a Minnesota quarter or Wyoming quarter and looks like its turning out to be a Nebraska homestead quarter. All of the coins I just listed have hundreds of different doubled dies making most of them worthless. However there are a few that are in mint state worth a few bucks and for a penny found crh that's a good deal ;)
