If you're talking about the zero then yes that's what happened.

Interesting Unless it happened a very long time ago,
It looks like it happened at the mint

1980 Penny Date Error "0" | Coin Talk

 

[jeff of pa]

odd to me.... What are the odds of So many hit right at the 0
by Counters Since the coins can go in at any angle including upside down , but it catches the 1980's 0 at the same angle

I can't rule out a Die or other mint error

But wouldn't a crimper press towards the outside? Unless I saw multiple years where the same error occurred, I'd be wondering. I'd keep this one a while longer.
