Hi there, I ran across this penny and I'm not sure if it's an error coin or not? I really could use some expertise on this one.

*** Edited by Staff to Add Mintmark to Title. It's very important to have in the title. ***

Agreed. The copper plating has been removed and now the zinc core is rotting. Spend it before it dissolve away!
