Strange Wheat Error?

Hi everyone,

Im kinda new here, and I had posted this in the coin roll hunting section, partly because thats how I came across it.

It was mentioned that I should try posting it here to see if any of you guys know what it is.

Thanks,

Alex.

I think that was gouged out, after the coin was well circulated.

Yeah, that's not a true mint-made error coin. It was damaged outside the mint. It has no numismatic or collector value.

Someone was trying to carve it out at one point in time.
