I found this penny in some random pocket change. Most of the interesting error coins I find are merely post mint damage. Is this the same? If it is, what could cause it?
Poor Abe was probably dropped in a Wallyword parking lot in 1986 and recovered rather recently in 2013 when it finally reentered circulation to wear off the rough edges of "road rash".
Unfortunately a bad case of "Road Rash". Heavy PMD making it worth one cent. But keep up the search because there are interesting coins waiting to be discovered.
