Looks like a map of Wisconsin punched in by one of those coin machines you find in an arcade... but that's a TOTAL guess...

Well, I'm glad you figured it out but wth is a "state counter stamped penny"?

I found once awhile back with Indiana on it stamped in exactly the same spot, not sure why though...

Pretty cool, I would keep it

I have a hand full of these with different states on them. I keep them but I don't think they're worth anything.

I keep them but I don't think they're worth anything.

They are worth between 1 and 2 cents, depending on if they are copper or not.

was just an excuse to sell a penny for 25 cents or more, depending on the sucker involved

A lot of gas stations will run promos with coins like this to try to get people to buy certain stuff. "Buy a candy bar and receive one of the 50 state pennies exclusive to XYZ gas station. Limited time collectibles. Get them all!" They are stamped after coming from the mint, and are worth a penny.
