I really don't see anything on the coin. As a gentle reminder when you post photos of your coin, you need to post one or two close photos of the area in question. Find some way to either give a detailed description of what you see and where you see it or take some close photos of the area in question along with pointing out where you are looking. Doing all this will let us see where you think the error is.

This is a normal, circulated and stained cent contact marks and plating issues, I find these all the time. The secret is not seeing things in them that's not there. It is easy to research over struck coins to learn what they look like.

Nothing in the minting process can put writing al over a coin that is not typical. vewi the following short videos to see how coins are made.
How Coins (and errors) Are Made

As has been said, pareidolia and the damage Daniel mentioned all add up to people seeing what is not really there.
