nfine Pillar of the Community United States 3478 Posts	Posted 06/11/2022 8:06 pm That penny has spent a fair amount of time in a parking lot being run over again and again. No errors, just damage unfortunately. Report this Post to the Staff
JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21663 Posts	Posted 06/11/2022 8:18 pm to the CCF No errors, just a badly damaged coin worth 1 cent. It is only an error if it happens during the actual striking of the coin. Anything that happens after that, such as your coin is damage. Report this Post to the Staff
