well-worn, and maybe colored years ago, and it's wearing off. It's not an error of any type, in any case. Also called 'enviornmental surface'...
That's a 'hit' by another coin or object. See the flattened area? that's where the 'hit' occured. Sorry, but it's not an error coin
copper plating blisters or 'bubbles' A fairly common effect on these cents since 1983
Hard to verbalize, but it's not natural. I guess viewing natural toned coins, of any metal, would be helpful to then be able to determine what...

Interesting - my post was only commenting on the posts of others who seemed to be a bit confused as to what the attribution mistake was, or what...
