I don't know anything about coins and don't know how this damage could happen in circulation. But like I said, I'm just curious.

darn! I'll keep looking. Got some '82s I just posted one that looks like it also has DDO
Am I seeing things or does this pretty 1982 coin have DDO?
This 1978 looks like doubling on the date and letters to me. Is it?

Does this 1916 have lamination errors or just damaged?

Thank you. I will post in error coins forum next time.
These lines appear to be raised. And the reverse looks like plaid.
Will do. Thanks. I didn’t think of that. Most of my pennies from that time weigh 3.6 but this one is 3.11
Hmmm...I have pennies from the ‘60s that weigh 3.6 grams and this one weighs 3.10. I thought they changed to zinc in the late ‘60s but the sf mint...
that is how I learn by asking stupid questions.
weighs 3.10 grams. could it be copper?
I think I’ll keep it. Lol
Not sure why this penny is so weird. Is this just a very damaged penny or is it something of value? [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Thank you. These pics and explanations of what it depicts are a great help to a newbie like me.
Thanks John, I have some other interesting coins and belong to PCGS. There is a special to rate coins for free, I might send it in with the others...
