Here's one for all you error viewers--either this coin has been shot 2x by some country folk, or, it's THE most messed up Blow Hole coin I've ever seen--2 holes, one on each side--chewed up rim, looks like it went through a garbage disposal--heavy "acne" bumps everywhere, blisters, etc....wow, what a mess--let me know what you think! Email me for pics--the site seems down to add pics <email address removed> Uploading Tutorial is here.

Actually it's not an error coin, it's been affected by the environment. It's corroded - damaged.

might have started off as a small hole but it then corroded later on when the elements got to it.

Maybe it's John Wilkes Booth's practice coin.

If I had a penny, for every penny I had like this, I'd have more money than I have now. I find cents like this all the time metal detecting. I tried cashing some of them in at the bank and they wouldn't take them. I'm stuck with hundreds of coins with holes in them. Maybe I should use them for target practice, then I can pretend that I really shot them. For now I just sneak them into the middle of rolls. I figure it's not my fault the government started making crappy coins. They made 'em, they can have 'em back.

I know the "look". This one spent some time on a parking lot:-) It is damaged. No Blow Hole...
