WHAT ON EARTH is wrong with my penny?!

[Mvgirl]

So I found this 1965 canadian penny... but what is wrong with it?! And error?! It looks almost fine on the front... but on the back it say liberty and has a curved dent in it! Could it be that a u.s. penny got pressed into it HELP ME!!!!

I think you got it right , maybe somebody pressed it against a U.S. penny in a vise ?

That is exactly it, someone pressed a US cent into it. Just damaged.

I think what Truth1253 is trying to say is that those who are trying to help you would prefer clear, properly lighted, high resolution images of the coin itself. Self focusing cameras, such as those found in our phones, tend to focus on things other than what we may intend. An example is your thumbnail. In all images, it is far clearer than the cent.

In this case, the cause was obvious, making better images unnecessary.

Time for more coffee.
