    Damaged by something corrosive after it left the mint. Sorry, but not an error.

    My wild guess is 1946, but you'll probably never going to know for certain.

    @Lalisa111.... Welcome aboard... The last numeral does look like it may be a 6.... but severely damaged and no numismatic premium. Cheers, RickO

    Put a magnet too it. If attracted to your magnet it's a 1943 wheat penny.

    Certainly looks like 1946. If this were 1943 copper penny, (which it isn't), it would be worth many thousands of dollars.
