*** Edited by Staff to Add Year / Mintmark / Denomination to Title. Titles are Important! ***Hey guys! I have this 1914 (?) Wheat penny with what looks to me like a stamping error at the bottom of Lincoln, but I can't find anything about it online. Does anyone have any ideas? Not sure if I am onto something here or not. Thank you!!

Ok, I just thought the way his shirt looks like the machine kind of dragged along it at the bottom. I know it is not a good grade.

 Appears to be corrosion, and that's not the only area where corrosion is evident. How does the reverse look?

If it's raised copper metal ,could it be a large Cud ?

Hmm, I'm not sure what that is.  Better pics would help--when I blow this up it starts to get pixellated.

Corroded 1918, maybe a metal detector find. True, might be a large Cud, but in that state...
