Hello my name is Ken and while I have loved coins and paper money I just started searching coins recently again. I just got my Tomlov Microscope in yesterday and started looking through cents. I started again because I found a few quarters with errors and found it intriguing. I live in Florida *Tampa / Clearwater area).

Oh I also found a 1983 Penny that in my opinion looks awesome. It has to be an ERROR and I have not seen another after looking on the internet today and yesterday. This is what I see: When looking at the front of the coin I can see the building that is on the back. Also when I look at the back I see a line on both side that I don't think should be there. Any help would be appreciated.
I look forward to learning and then eventually contributing to the forums.

Sounds like you're discribing a die clash...
When the dies come together without a planchet in the chamber the dies clash with each other and leave an impression on one another...
