Hello everyone. I am new to coin collecting. I came across a 1980 penny with extreme damage? Or errors? Also found 1971 very similar just wondering if it's worth looking into further. Thanks in advance for your feedback.

You are right - extreme damage. Could have been dropped in a parking lot and run over by multiple cars untill found and put back into circulation.

It doesn't really matter how it happened, the main thing is that it could
not have happened during the striking of the coin.
Anything that happens after that is just damage. PMD
