I was coin roll hunting when I came across thos Lincoln Cent.triangles cut into coin letters and numbers are smashed as well as it looks like excessive Cuds all over the coin.numbers are miss shaped as well as the lettering. The marks are symmetrical I think on both sides any suggestions will be appreciated thank you. Thomas hart

@th, first welcome to CCF. Second, I agree with @bobby that your cent has been heavily damaged (not a mint error). It could be an number of things, but my best guess is impact on the faces from a circular drill bit of the type that are used to drill holes in wood doors for the doorknob (but obviously smaller in diameter).

Scary. Looks like it was flattened with a beer bottle cap. Maybe a Corona? One they needed an opener to remove the lid. (Not a screw twist off cap)

A damaged coin, PSD. Just a spendable coin.
