Welcome to the neighborhood @Twana !

First, it would help if you tried to be more specific about what you think you see. Otherwise, we would just be guessing.

Further, it is best if you crop your photo to remove all of the unnecessary background and resizing the image before posting it.

I'm looking at the date and letters and as far as coping and resizing it I don't know how to do all of that

 

Looks like it spent some time in a dryer.

 

No its been in my jar of pennies and no thanks for the humor

 

Chris my daughter crop it for me Thank you

 

Before it landed in your jar it spent some time in a dryer...it's not an error. Look up "dryer coin".

 

Ok that's all you had to say

 

My apologies for not understanding that you would immediately think someone was messing with you instead of taking the answer that was written and maybe doing some research on your own.

 

+1 on dryer coin.

 

See! I knew that kids are good for something, somehow, some way!

Yeah, @furryfrog02 was right. Sometimes, coins get stuck in a dryer, and the heat tends to "melt" away all of the details (devices).

Ok thank you but stated in my post I said I was new at looking at coins so I never knew it was coins called dryer coins so by me not knowing why would I look it up

 

Some of y'all been doing this forever I just starting to look at coins a few days now I know about dryer coins

 

And learning is half the battle. The other half is stopping searching once you have started. It can be quite the addiction.

 

Yeah it can I sometimes get headaches trying to look through this little magnifier I bought
