Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 08/17/2022 7:45 pm @ zeph, first welcome to CCF. Second, I'm not so sure that you have a mint error here. Rather, it looks to me like chemical exposure has partially removed the plating from a normal cent.

I have a few in my collection because I have seen and read that there are some that are errors in plating. I think you should keep it until you/we know for sure. It is only costing you 1¢.
