My initial was PMD.... but could you please get an exact weight of the coin... I'm wondering if the penny was just a smaller planchet.... |

the coin on the right looks like it has a larger bust although it could just be my eyes. looking forward to hearing how much the coin weigh's.

A 1967 penny is 3.24 g, so within range.
Also could have been struck through a split/thin planchet, as there appears to be a weakness in the beads on the lower left of the obverse.
Can you post a close-up of the front, back and side?

I can try and get a good pic when I get home, at work now :) the reverse almost looks like it's bubbled out around the bird too

It looks slightly smaller in design. It could be an electromagnetic shrinking experiment, has Uneven surface round bird. Just an idea. Some of the letters and dots don't line up like a 1967 normal penny. The II's for example. What does the edge look like? Is rounded or flat?

Is it thicker than the normal 67 penny? The weight is within tolerance. Is the centre of the edge sunken inwards?

My guess is electromagnetically shrunken. Is,there any slight distortion sin the queens design vs normal? And is the surface directly around the queen off? Use the normal to compare. It's something only you can likely see in hand
