I don't know if this is an error or has been damaged...maybe a Dryer Coin?

Just a spender coin and when it gets back to the bank, it will be sent in to be cancelled. (Just a copper melt coin now) Damage never makes a coin worth more than face value. If it were a variety and was altered, then it could look as much as 90% of the collectable value)

Agree this is a Dryer Coin with little value.

Most definitely a Dryer Coin - you can see the rim is 'eating up' the interior devices usually found by the edge of the coin. If you bought this one, I hope you didn't pay too much.
