I see nothing on your cent that would qualify as an error or variety. Here is three links that might help. The first two have tons of photos of varieties. The third is (as the name indicates)is for errors. There are more but these should give you a good start. When I started all I had was the Red Book. The Cherry Pickers Guide and The RPM Book.

@krice, in looking at the mintmark on the '79-D Cent, it does appear to be partially filled in. This may have come from the post on the die being partially chipped. However, even completely filled in mintmarks are common enough that there isn't a a premium.

Just a broken post that would normally form the center of the 'D'. Some break off part way, others half way, and some remove part of the die base leaving the center of the mintmark above the mintmark:
