Given the images posted, I'm seeing a very worn 1912 Wheat cent, with some unfortunate scratches on the reverse. Beware Pareidolia. All post-strike damage, in my opinion.

Nothing wrong with the coin that can't be
attributed to wear and damage.

Incuse marks are damage to the coin. Making it just a Wheat cent now. (Hole filler until you get a better coin)

For a coin that is 101 years old, and obviously in circulation much of that time, it looks as it should. If for some reason I would make it to that age, I would love to look this good.

Odd are not in my favor though....
