So I saw a YouTube video the other day from one of the guys that have been around for a while doing the coin thing and he was saying how coins that have this kind of stuff on them can actually be errors and not just anchor who knows whatever... So first question is is this a minting error? Second what exactly causes this if it is a minting error? And finally if it is how can you tell the difference between it then and say someone spilling ink on a penny? Sorry for the loads of questions, but I certainly appreciate anyone who has anything that can help me with this thank you!
Mistake number one. UTube destroys more brains than it helps.
Your cent does not have any sort of mint errors, sorry. Environmental staining/discolouration/ from chemical and/or heat exposure. Spend it if you can convince someone to touch it. Keep searching!
