This is an odd Cent That I’ve never seen before and I thought I seen it all

[Truth]

I just ran across this 1981 Penny Memorial and everything like Lincoln To anything raise? Any explanation?

All post mint damage.

Cent was first coated with something. Adhesives and paints are quite common.

Second was a lot of wear.

I’ve seen worse.

Time for more coffee.
