lincoln error coin

A friend gave me this coin and I don't know why it looks like this, how it might have happened, or if it's worth anything. Any ideas? Having trouble loading photos, says photo is too large. don't knowhow to fix it.

We may have some ideas but we need photos, full sized, of the coin in question.

 

I'll try again. But it won't let me saying uploaded image is too big.

 

Try using your cell phone camera and cropping the image.

 

I agree edit and crop the image also get as close as you can to fill the screen space without it being blurry.

 

E-mail it to yourself using a lower storage and then add to post.

 

Suggestion. Only ask what could of happened to it. It's more important to educate yourself in the difference between a true mint error and post mint damage. Don't worry about "what's it worth?".. most issues you will find in circulation have very little or no premium at all. It's super rare that a person will strike it rich which seems to be every new collectors dream but it a rare occurrence.

 

The run we have had lately, stupid money for common abnormities, it has gotten a little ridiculous. Set, type coins aren't changing hands

 

Well said, my good man.
What's it worth comes in time. Education before Evaluation.
