What type of error would this penny be?  *** Edited by Staff - Added obverse image.***

Looks like it was covered in some sort of latex-like material (paint maybe?) and then peeled off. What does the obverse look like? I can see a kid doing something like that. If you peeled it off in one piece you'd have a neat impression of the cent.

@alon, first welcome to CCF.
Second, as best practice is to only start one thread per coin, I've merged your two threads for this coin into one.

It's definitely not paint or latex because I tried cleaning it.

cleaning with what? you should not be 'cleaning' your coin. a good acetone soak with no rubbing or scrubbing is ok.
But what ever that stuff is around the rim was added after the coin was struck. The rim devices are struck up very well right up to the thing that is 'covering' them can you get up a nice edge shot of the coin where 'America" is on the reverse?

The image of the reverse disappeared. That side looks more like something is on the coin.

Could be an early stage Dryer Coin, as I stated in your previous thread.
