More than likely, it’s just post mint damage, but it’s still pretty interesting. The one and nine in 1975 look like a heart, and on the back, it almost looks like it says “ONE GENT.”
Just thought I would share it.

Looks like it got ground up somewhere or other....will be a cool find if it turns out to be a die problem.

Looks like it was laying on the ground in a parking lot or on a street and run over multiple times.
