Found this and looks interesting, new to this. Can anyone tell me more about it or it's value? On both sides, especially the reverse, you can still see some of the previous inscriptions. The pictures really don't do it justice. Thanks for the help y'all!

May have been gently drilled out--vs. blunt force impact. Posts-trike damage for me.

As for 'inscriptions', beware of Pareidolia

Nothing that can't be contributed to damage.
The value is in the copper.

Damage ruins the value for a coin. (Near a plus for a coin as it was done post strike)

Just post mint damage. Value: about 3 cents, the wholesale value of Wheaties.
