    I don't get it there is a wierd "bump" on it
    There is an indent on Lincoln's neck on the obverse
    And on the reverse there is a bump on the E in CENT

    Exactly what I was going to say. Some of us older kids used to shoot at pennies all the time.

    Yeah, it was hit with either a bb gun or a 20mm cannon. Take your pick.

    Oh really? On the word CENT.. so this is not a PENNY but indeed a CENT! Oh let me stop. Call it what you want. But seriously that is considered Post Mint Damage. Like the others have stated shot by a BB pellet or hit by and object really hard!

    Yes you are right. My apologies. I will never make any other comments than the answer you are looking for.
