    It's definitely post-mint damage and not a mint error, if that's what you're wondering.

    However, I can't say for sure exactly what happened there, to make Abe lose his face like that- whether by some deliberate tooling or freakish corrosion/pitting.

    Suffice to say that while it's not an error, it's kind of interesting.

    Click the "spoiler" tab to see what it's worth. ;)

    Whatever someone will pay you for it. :D

    1994 Cents are Copper Plated Zinc
    I have found several as the one shown when Metal Detecting. Usually in sand near freshwater. As stated, the plating is exposed and the Zinc is affected and worn away.

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

    He needed to "save face" but failed.
