Mercury. It has a lot of craters as the planet has no atmosphere to speak of and therefore no weather. Meteors are allowed to collide with the planet a lot more easily as the lack of atmosphere means that they don't burn or break up, the lack of weather also means that the craters stay put once they are formed, much like on our moon. There are also no active volcanoes to cover matter over the formed craters.

Djlancerock has a better answer:
Mercury has the most craters because of its barren, rocky surface.

ex: in our atmosphere the only ones is mercury and moons

What is the surface of planet mercury covered with?
Craters.
Does the planet Venus' have craters?
Venus has about 1,000 young craters, the biggest of which is Crater Mead, about 170 mile across. Oddly, there is no evidence on Venus of old craters like we see on the moon, Earth, and Mars. Somehow these old craters were smoothed over on Venus . . . by lava flow?? By high winds??
Why is the earth not covered with craters?
The earth is not covered with impact craters because weather and geological activity erodes the craters away over time.
What planet is closer to the sun and has craters?
Mercury is closest to the sun and has craters.
Why isn't the earth covered with craters?
The Earth isn't covered in as many craters as other planets is due to water and wind erosion. Plant and wildlife also cover up some craters making them less visible.
