your picture is not in focus, but it just looks like damage. Can you post a better picture?

Assuming you're a Red Sox fan: Let's go,

As for the coin, it appears to be damage but, as Fuzzy said, the pic is too out of focus to tell much. Also, a clear pic of the obverse (face) will help.

I agree. It looks like someone damaged it with something hard.

@RS978, first welcome to CCF. Second, I agree that your coin is damaged and only worth one cent. You can safely spend it, but keep looking!
