 I was getting boxes of pennies from the bank, sometime the boxes had more new pennies than I was looking for until one day I opened a roll and found this 2014. *** Edited by Staff to Add Year / Mintmark / Denomination to Title. Titles are Important! ***

Yes, appears to be a damaged Lincoln Cent that has been abraded on the surface revealing the zinc underneath.

Yes, have come across these a number of times. Straight-on photos, front and back, might nail this down further.

@Greasy Fingers agreed but it helps train the new guys to always take photos of both sides.

Translation: There is a thin copper coating over a zinc Lincoln. This copper coating wears away over time. The wear reveals the zinc underneath. The result is a damaged coin.
Worthy to save for educational purposes. But still worth only a penny.
