    No. A tortured cent. Seems to have been acidic.

    Sorry, but your coin suffered environmental damage. It did not leave the mint looking like that and is not an error

    Agree with others that the coin has environmental damage.

    Your coin has been harshly cleaned/damaged and hold no numismatic value.

    Welcome to CT @benjamin ozegowsky. First of all, the photos are too poor to really discern much of anything. Because this forum deals strictly with giving advice from photos, the best ones possible will get you the best advice.
    This is my standard advice on posting photos here:
    You should always post in focus FULL IMAGE photos (after you upload your photo, two buttons appear: Thumbnail and Full Image, click Full Image and your photo appears full size on your post and is easily enlarged by clicking on it). Photograph coins on neutral backgrounds like black, grey, or white. Crop out superfluous background so just the coin shows, and post photos with correct orientation so members don't have to turn their computer in some awkward fashion to view it properly. While it isn’t always necessary, it is nice to show both the obverse and reverse, even if your question is just about one side. Members can often give more valuable information having both sides to evaluate. Add close ups of areas you have questions about and make your questions as definitive as possible so we know what you are asking for. And try to have the best lighting possible to show the most favorable photo of the coin. Hope this helps in the future. Good luck.
