Greetings! CoinMonster here.

I have this 2002 D Penny that looks like it has some kind of Incomplete Plating error, or PDM.

On the Reverse, at the top, there's a clear plateau bar from the right side of the first letter "T" in the word "STATES" going across the letter "A".

On the Obverse at the top, there looks like there may be some kind of extra die clash at the top, just below the silver part as it bleeds into the normal color of the penny.

I'm not sure. I admit my photo is not the best.

On the Obverse at the bottom left, as the error goes upward, there's a plateau the same normal color of the penny that looks like something was spilled on it, but it looks to me like some kind of strike error.

Can anyone tell me what I'm looking at here?

Looks like plain mechanical damage to me. Photos are fine.

This is nothing the hobby would collect/value. Most odd looking coins are just post mint damage. A lot of people are mislead by online clickbait videos and tons of worthless ebay auctions wrongly being sold as rare error coins. If you want to find real error coins, you have to first know what real error coins are.

Looking for random anomalies on coins and hoping they match up to something collectable will take you a lot more time, wasted effort, and disappointment repeatedly finding out you have nothing but post mint damage, useless Machine Doubling, Die Deterioration, or minor insignificant imperfections (etc.).

Spend some initial time at places like error-ref.com, doubleddie.com, varietyvista.com, conecaonline.org, coppercoins.com etc. to find what actual and collectable coin errors look like.

A good way to start is, for instance, separate a bunch of pennies by date. Go to varietyvista.com and, date by date, use the reference there to see what errors are known for that specific coin/mint mark. Look for those specific errors/varieties using the pictures provided. After doing this for awhile you will KNOW what an actual error looks like and not have to waste time on face value and damaged coins. :)

Just damage, probably deliberate.

Severely scuffed, intentionally or not, enough to remove copper plating around the rims.

Thanks everyone. But no one is telling me what that raised shelf is between the "T & A" is in States is.

The top bar of the "T" on the right side goes all the way across the top of the "A".
That is something that can't be from the coin getting smashed, scraped, thrown out a 100 story window, etc

Where in nature does anything getting smashed produce a straight edge and a straight line?

Also, the raised shelf clearly depicts extra metal in a place it should not be.
It's not coming from the rim, because the rim has not lost any metal.
The only way that could be post mint damage that I can tell, is if someone soldered a piece of metal to it, which there is no evidence of soldering on the coin.

Is it possible that a coin could have both, Post Mint Damage, and, a real Mint Error?

I get all the other stuff us probably PMD, what what is that raised plateau extended from the "T"

Thank you all for the website study guides, but I have severe dry eyes from a bad military vaccine, and I tearing a retina and blindness spending large amounts of time searching through websites.

If that extra shelf on my coin is a post mint damage, then can someone please give me a brief explanation how an extra shelf or plateau with a "straight edge line" on it get added to a coin by hammering it, or added by machine damage, or some other mechanical means?

Thanks everyone!

Everything on this coin is PMD. doesn't matter how it happened. Even if there were an error on this coin, and there is not, the damage nullifies any collectability. Study up on how coins are made, then you will know what's an error and what is not.
