I would assume you're talking about the fine nicks and scratches (?) I wouldn't consider it mint damage, but rather the result of the coins constantly coming in contact with each other because of high speed production. Here's a pretty interesting video -

Re-read his question. No stamped mint marks

That is a regular Philadelphia mint.
In a full mint state uncirculated coin it is worth about 35 cents.

The ops is worth......... Spending.

I thought Philadelphia had no mint mark ? So what's so special about them ?

AI Overview

Yes, the Philadelphia Mint stamps a "P" mint mark on most coins it produces, but not on pennies (except for the 2017 mintage year). This practice began in 1980, but before that, coins from the Philadelphia Mint generally lacked a mint mark, as it was the original and only U.S. mint for many years, making a mark unnecessary.

Key Points

• Modern "P" Mark:
  Since 1980, all U.S. coins minted at the Philadelphia Mint, except for pennies, bear the "P" mint mark.
  
  
• Pennies:
  Philadelphia-produced pennies generally do not have a "P" mint mark, though this changed for the 2017 mintage year.
  
  
• Historical Context:
  For a long period, the Philadelphia Mint, being the original and only mint, didn't need to use a mint mark.
  
  
• "No Mint Mark" = Philadelphia:
  Finding a coin from the general circulation without a mint mark (like "D" for Denver or "S" for San Francisco) typically indicates it was minted in Philadelphia.

Despite the hype from certain YouTube and TikTok creators, for nearly every year of its existence, the Philadelphia Mint did not utilize dies with mint marks for one cent pieces. A notable exception is 2017.

Your 2019 one cent pieces were produced without a mint mark, as were all cents produced by the Philadelphia Mint.

In the future, use only trusted sources for information on coins.

Time for more coffee.

The trick is if another mint other than P goofed up and didn't add a mark. Then it would be hard to prove it.

Which is why dies are now manufactured with mint marks, rather than having them added at branch mints.

There's no need to shout... The wording for "United States of America" on the reverse of the coin looks fine to me. I'm not sure what you're seeing that looks amiss.

Bill, can you take a photo next to a standard 2019 Philly penny and show us what you are seeing? We might all learn something new from you.
