Hi guys I am back with a quick question have taken some of your advice and have been making references to:

http://www.error-ref.com/

I also found this:

http://cuds-on-coins.com/

Anyways, the coin in question is below, I believe we can classify this as a:

"1956 P Wheat penny Class II - Distorted Hub Doubling LDB4-1956-008 4F+"

I have a comparison picture on the left and right to note the difference, what do you guys think?

I do see the BIE, and a fair degree of circulation flattening. Would be cool to see a photo of the reverse. These '56 P wheat cents can have die chips and cracks on the reverse.

On a side note is this what you mean by cracked on the reverse side ?

Is that anything special or premium?

That looks like a crack to me lol, but in all seriousness what do you call that above, is it just damage or could it be a possible error coin. I haven't found anything as such.
