Cents or pennies where not clad until 1982 so this is corrosion of some kind.

Re: 1974 D penny error
I will try to take a better picture because it seems to be the same material the penny is made of.

I took some better pics of this penny. Seems to be the same material the penny is made of if you look close.

It will not come off, I have tried and can't make a dent in it. Definitely not glue.

It is the color and luster of the coin showing through the transparent substance. It will peel off if you give it a try.
