"Weird" 1984 Lincoln Cent!

Hello All,

I found the atttached 1984 Lincoln Penny in a coin-roll I received in a Gift-Basket for Christmas. I can't determine if the coin is just worn from age and laying around in the elements over the years, or if some of the errors existed when it left the Philadelphia Mint.

You're thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

burst plating blisters exposing the zinc core. All damage.

 

Your coin is environmentally damaged. Spend it.

Thank you! i am still finding oddities-I will post more in a few days.
Thanks for the link!

 

I like finding/seeing these types of anomalies as well.

 

Here are a few more that my friend taped to the gift-basket. Although the photo doesn't pick it up, they are both "Buckled" in the center from east to west.

 

Hmmmm, very interesting @BSCoinbank.

 

That coin is damaged.

 

These look like dryer coins, but not sure why they are buckled.

 

Wow I never seen one like that cool find

 

Just damage.

 

Pressed or rubbed against on the obverse allowing the zinc to show on the surface. Quite a bit of wear. Looks like it was pressed against something with a curved top of sorts. Certainly not mint damage.
