Welcome to the forum. All I can see is evidence of almost fifty years of circulation. Lots of wear, dings, scratches but that is about it.
No error, just damage. I don't know what happened to the poor thing but it has had a rough life!
The date and mintmark would be on the edge. What is on the reverse?

I was just looking at sold listings on ebay to see what they are going for and saw two bad fakes that just sold. One went for over $200 and the...

Normal circulated Philadelphia minted cent. Definitely not a proof.
