If any of the images are reversed, it was done by squeezing a penny between two others in a vice - this is a common way for people do to make a funny looking "coin."

I just realized that I uploaded photos to my new member on board message. I've already had a response from a member that identified the penny as having zinc rot. One image shows Lincoln with an earring. I'll pay closer attention to what I'm posting and where. Thanks again for your interest in helping.

We have seen a few mysterious circle spots on similar cents, I believe they are known as "ufos" since their origin is unknown. Better photos would be of help. And yes, your coin has zinc rot as well.  to the CCF!  |

Well the craters were caused by poking the coin with a straight pin. At one time they were raised and then you could see the puncture marks. (note the lowest one on the image, you can see the gray area in the center) Just a damaged coin. A spender as the coins life will be reduced because of the punctures.
