Looks like a mutilated 1934 to me. Someone just got bored and took it out on this coin.

 

Is the 1 correct stamp

 

The metal in the date was pushed by whatever left the heavy scratches next to the rim. This can happen when roll wrapping machines crimp the ends too tight. It is a damaged coin and the value is significantly reduced. Is the last digit 1? Maybe, but I' guessing a 4. It's too damaged to tell for certain

 

Whats going on here look at the stamp ring closely next to botched 4th didgit.

 

Also look at the i in liberty its seems sideways?

 

I see what you are referring to. The Double Rim look might just be a slight Misaligned Die strike. But the last digit is a damaged 4 combined with some other circular damage.
Your Cent is 84 years old.. many things happen to coins after so many years.
So.. it's not anything major with a premium.

Also. You already posted in the "what's it worth" forum. No need to post twice since the same members are going to see the same Cent.

 

First, welcome to the neighborhood!

Don't you think that you should expect to see circulation damage on a coin that is 80+ years old?

Circulation Damage.

value?

1934 is correct. No coin dealer will pay premium for it, though. Sorry.
