Not a mint error, it is PMD, someone did it after it left the mint.

A shame to have done this on a now 100 year old coin. I'd say worth pretty much face value with this much damage.

On CCF, all Lincoln Cents are considered Modern Coins, so I moved your post to the appropriate section for the proper attention.

If you want, you can still save it, in your cull Wheat cent pile.
