Titles are Important! * Found this 1983 cent with double diebreaks evident on the memorial corners . But what caused the cent to turn grey in the middle. Report this Post to the Staff

As to the surface discoloration on the rev, it is anyone's guess as to what exactly it is. However, it didn't happen at the mint.
