Not a die break, although perhaps a small die crack coming off the letter E in America (if that linear feature is raised). All the other stuff is PMD.

Nope. It's unfortunately just a heavily damaged Wheat cent. It's Post Strike Damage ( PSD).

First, to CCF.

That there is the most damaged coin I ever done seen in my life! Looks like it got hit with a cheese grater and a semi-truck on a nail bed!

That is a parking lot cent. Looks as if it's been ran over in a parking lot. Post mint damage. It did not leave the mint like that.

Good question, but that also looks like it was due to damage.
