    There are 2 rings left of the ear, 1 on the chin, and 1 on the tip of the nose.

    Never seen it before probably post mint damage but wait to see what someone smarter than me says

    V. Kurt Bellman Yes, I'm blunt! Get over your "feeeeelings".

    Zits. I hate when I get them on my beard. Rumor has it John Wilkes Booth might know a thing or two about the holes in the back of his head. Or was it Lee Harvey Oswald's great-grandfather?

    Seriously, what do we know about post-1982 cents? What are they made of?

    Your Cent is a Copper Plated Zinc coin. Those are just plating issues called plating bubbles. Some have ruptured.
