Please post an end-on photo of the rim. My gut sense suggests this may be an early stage Dryer Coin. Aside from that, it appears the E in WE suffered a circulation ding.
FYI- If the area below the "E" is raised, it could be a die chip or a plating blister on a zinc cent.
Can you give us the weight of the coin? A zinc cent will weigh 2.5 grams. If you don't have a scale, you can make a "balance type scale" to compare your coin to a known zinc cent or copper cent. (A popsicle stick or ruler with a fulcrum under the center of it will work.)
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.
