1985 D/D?

Just wondering if this is a rpm or omm or just damage?

Zinc rot. It is common on post '81 pennies for the copper plating around the mint mark to break during striking, exposing the zinc core to the elements.

 

Alright thank you. I have a 1983 with something as well.maybe you would know?

 

Zinc rot by the T, And die crack from the memorial to the rim.

 

The T has like an extra raised line on it, so that would be zinc rot?

 

Between the I and the T is a die crack.
I think the tail of the T shows a die crack and the cross of the T shows plating bubbles with some zinc rot.

 

Thank you

 

Missed the die crack.

 

Here is some information -

Thank you to all on this thread! On my latest search I came across this, and was going to post on them but I don't think I have to anymore. Thanks

So this would just be zinc deterioration?
