Re: 1949 Wheat Penny No mint mark w/ Errors

It's hard to tell from the pics if there are any goofs from the mint (manufacturer defects) which would make it an error. It just looks old and dirty. Corrosion and oxidation aside, is there anything that stands out?

The correct term would be "Die" error.

Wheat cents minted in Philly do not have mint marks. Only Denver and San Francisco.

Environmental damage, not an error.
