1941 Wheat Penny with Die Breaks?

    Hello, I am wondering if the die breaks (?) on my 1941 wheat penny were caused during the minting process, which it looks like, or some other way. Ultimately wondering if it would just be considered a damaged coin or if it might have some value due to how unusual it is.
    Thoughts?

    First welcome to CT.
    We get questions like this all the time.
    That is 100% damage.
    The cent did not leave the mint in that condition.

    Welcome to CT Kim. As already stated, just damage after it left the mint, so PMD, but sure an eye catcher.
