Heck I don't even know what to say about this one. I can tell you that it is very lustery and isn't that circulated, even though the lighting makes the coin seem dull, it isn't. It's just another common shiny shield penny with whatever that is on the reverse side.

Also the same as the 2016. It is PSD by a coin wrapper. Not a premium coin. Just a coin event that will mark it as long as it exists.
Rest in Peace

It's Post Strike Damage unfortunately. It's damage from a Coin Wrapping Machine.

At least now you can tell that you don't have the very rare "copper" variety.

It's damage that scraped away the copper plating exposing the zinc underneath.
