Not sure if I found an amazing Penney and I'm hoping for some help identifying if it is what I think it is I'm fairly new to coins but have quickly become consumed with my new hobby any thoughts on this 1969 s wire strike? Penny will be most appreciative I also think there could be some doubling is on the front.

Just a very badly damaged coin. Did you find it in a parking lot?

to CCF. It does look like a "parking lot coin" to me as well.

@jjp, first welcome to CCF. Second, as mentioned above, those gouges all are damage rather than mint errors. With regard to doubling, I don't see anything obvious, but perhaps you can describe which letters or design elements are doubled with the coin in hand? Thx.

Just barely short of being a really nice coin
Actually looks like someone got mad at that coin.

Wow! Just what kind of CAT do you have?!?

As noted above, this is just a damaged coin. Keep searching and post the coins you have questions about. I posted an UGLY error cent a few months ago, you can see it here http://goccf.com/t/354408.
