Was this made during casting or damaged elsewise?

And the proper term is not casting ; It's striking , striking a blank planchet with what is known as coin dies .
Your coin was intentionally damaged after it left the mint .

Someone trying to make a vending machine coin. But probably didn't work. Now just a damaged Wheat cent.

Deliberate, post mint damage. Not worth even a cent.
