    I found a 1946 penny and the 6 does not look right at all. I've searched all over the place for 1946 Penny's with errors on the 6 but they don't exist. Can someone help me figure this out

    Rocky, you are correct, the 6 does not look right...& you are correct again, they don't exist.

    Your cent is damaged from its 73 yrs in circulation.

    I second what @PlanoSteve said. Your coin has been damaged. Copper is pretty soft and something hit your coin and pushed the metal of the 6.

    Should I assume that you have checked all 315,690,000 business strikes?

    Like the others said, it is very easy for circulation damage to disfigure the letters and numbers.

    That 6 is damaged so it won't look right.
