    This is two separate coins and both have metal pushed out from the "D" in the same spot. KIMG0710.JPG

    Sorry, but it's damage. The copper plating split and the zinc underneath is corroding. It's similar to a car fender rusting after the paint is scratched. It's not uncommon to have split plating on cents from the 80s

    Yet another crappy Zincoln with issues. I sure wish they would retire the cent if they can't produce something better.
