Welcome to the Chat board

We are going to need a clear photo of both sides and an explanation of what you find interesting about it.   
Right now it is just a 2001 cent worth a cent.

Damage is anything that happens to a coin after it has been ejected from the striking chamber.  
There are numerous things that can happen while being handled and packed at the mint that
would be considered damage. If it happens during the striking of the coin, then it would be an error.

All Insee is a Silver Eagle for sale.

Definitely a counterfeit.   
Just compare the photo of your coin with a photo of a genuine one and you can see many differences.

Almost forgot.

“ California Job Case”, haven’t heard that term in a while. Reminds me many years ago when I first started out in printing setting type by hand from such a case. Then along came computerized typesetting and they went the way of the do-do bird.  I used to have one on my wall, they made great small ornament racks.

It is impossible to have a letter below the date appear during the minting process.   
What you have is a plating bubble, common with zincoins.

More Spam promoting services. Been reported.

It is called Environmental Toning which can be caused by numerous things after it left the mint.  
As Sandon stated, it was probably buried for awhile but exposure to certain chemicals can    
also cause toning. To save confusion on any posting, please start a new post for each coin.

Welcome to the Chat Board.
Hard to say exactly what caused the damage. it could be anything that spilled on your cent.   
They are known as coffee cup holder coins. It’s still worth 1 cent though.

Definitely a Chinese counterfeit. A Double Struck coin would only have one riim.
This coin shows two rims.

Welcome to the Chat Board

It has a value of 1 cent.
There is nothing on that coin that constitutes an error. It is all just damage   
Once I saw “ multiple errors”, I knew what to expect. It is hard enough to find    
a coin with a single error, let alone multiple ones. Suggest you read up on    
what a actual error really is so you can save yourself time as about 99% of   
coins with anomolies are damaged, not errors. It is only an error if it happens.  
during the striking of the coin. Anything that happens after that is damage.
A good site to start with is “error-ref.com”

Welcome to the chat board.

Looks like it could be a 1983 but what could it possibly matter, it is a badly damaged road kill coin
with a value of 1 cent if you can find some one to take it.

Is this worth to get graded?

Definitely not. With over 6 Billion 1982 D cents minted, they are certainly not scarce.   
It would cost you around $60.00 to have a coin worth 1 cent graded.

Have seen this many times.  
Put some glue on a coin and press another one onto it. Should come off with acetone unless you want to leave it.

Welcome to the Chat board

Why do you think it is worth more than 5 cents. What research did you do to come to that conclusion.

At todays rate, it is worth $59.70.

Just looks like a regular cent with some staining on the reverse.   
With over 563 million minted, they are fairly common.   
What makes you think that it is special?

Yes it is a Small Date

Are you serious?
That adds no value to the coin. If it is so rare, why has it not been graded.

Get it replated  

Have to disagree with you Mike, not a greaser.  It is just badly corroded with no numismatic value.   
If it was grease filled, it would not affect the rims. That quarter has the rims partially mossing on both sides.   
Also grease filled would have a much smoother appearance and not show any of the copper core.

If you are weighing coins, an accurate weight to two decimal points is required.

Welcome to the Chat Box

Nobody will be able to help you without clear photos.

This is the forum for buying and selling coins.   
If you are selling, please follow the instructions under the Coin Marketplace Guidelines above your post.   
By the way, those photos are useless for whatever it is you are inquiring about. How is anyone supposed.  
to see any detail on the coin, you can’t even tell what it is.
