    Do you mean "corrosion" ? May be plating blisters......see if they can be pressed down with a toothpick.

    Interesting effect. You are probably correct.

    Next up is zinc rot now that the copper coating has been breached.

    The zinc Lincolns hold up very poorly when subjected to an unfriendly environment. I wouldn't spend much time worrying about minor surface flaws like those.

    Good photos.

    I see it tagged as error

    It’s not

    I am not sure what is under there, nothing out of the ordinary? Or corrosion? Can’t say.

    This is a common problem with the copper plated zinc cents which were begun in 1982. No added value and not a mint error.

    Excellent pictures.... They are microscopic plating flaws... Likely the zinc is exposed, which will result in zinc rot in time. Not an error, no numismatic premium. Cheers, RickO

    Could also be zinc rot.
