Damaged coin. It was not struck that way. Altered post strike.

Aye, post-strike damage it is. Not a mint error.

drag an undamaged cent along some concrete and you'll wind up with something similar
for future reference, smaller pictures with better sharpness will get you more replies

Yes this was someone having fun—not a mint error.

It didn't leave the mint looking this way. Post mint damage, either intentional or accidental.  |

Thanks to all. Strange because I got a A penny straight from the mint with not nearly with as much damage. Yet still the bronzish tone missing on some raised areas leaving it that steel color. This was a 2022. Guess somebody was bored?

I didn't have access to a grinding wheel as a kid, so we used hammers or left them on train rails. Why we did this, I have no idea.
