Just a typical circulated cent, nothing special.

I agree with @badger mint on the '83. For the '99, there is a small hole in the copper plating next to the second number 9 in the date. The underlying zinc has now started to deteriorate. Neither cent is a mint error and both can be safely spent.

 to CCF. The 83,planchet flaw before plating? 99,zinc rot from burst gas bubble. A few too many pics by the way. It would also help if you described what you are seeing. John1  |

Nothing special, although I can see why you would ask.

Thanks, everyone. Sorry about too many pix.
The '83 ear was a particular focus.

That 1983 looks familiar, I found one just like a month ago, I put it aside not knowing what it was.

What does the 1983 weigh? And let's see the back of the 1999.

I posted the coins to know what they were, not really for the value and why I asked for the expertise on this forum. The '83 ear is raised metal, curved or hooked and the dot. The only reference I found during research was a type of mad clash.
I will send the '99 reverse pic in a few
