Looks like damage. Part of the rim has been sheared off and over.
Those are all large dates, but I wouldn't put them back into circulation. Rolls of uncirculated 1960 cents will command a premium even if they...

Chris, I understand full well what concentric circles are and I'm very familiar with lathe lines on Lincoln cents. This coin is showing lathe lines.

What you see going on with this coin is a plating issue. Beginning in 1982, the Mint started using copper plated zinc planchets. It's not uncommon...

Those cents from 1970 yielded some nice clashes. Good find.
