If a copper coin is discolored, is it automatically a cull coin? Indian Head cent example 0

[VanArippa]

I was thinking of getting rid of some of my Indian Head cents but I do not want to sell anyone any culls? Is this coin a cull? I think it is buy

I'm not sure. Thanks

I would not describe it as a cull, but certainly worth about as much, my value would be 2 or 3 cents.

"Culls" are usually damaged or severely corroded coins -- ones that might be rejected by a bank or merchant.

Your cent is just really dirty, stained and somewhat corroded. If you hit it with a hammer, it will become a cull.
