    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.

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

    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.

    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).

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