Is this an error?

I have been looking through pennies and have been seeing this error on some of them.
Is this a true error, if so what is it called?
I comparted it to another coin of the same year and they are different.

Probably grease filled die. Little added value.

This is not a grease filled die...

You must look up in research the reason "WHY" this happens.....
You will never learn anything if you are just given the answer for every question you ask.
When members get stuck, I'm more than happy to lead you in the right direction.
