  1. What type of error would you call this?

    No error. The scratches and gouges are from being scuffed up over time. Post Mint Damage (PMD). Still a wheat cent though.

    Damaged. Looks like it spent some time in gravel, or something like that. Under magnification, the gouges do look kind of interesting, but that's all that is: PMD.
     
  5. Oh Ok. I thought these raised areas were letters so it made me think it would have been an error.

    There is indeed some raised metal in places, but that's because it got pushed around due to the gouges, when the coin was damaged.
     
  7. I see. That makes sense.
