Your coin is quite worn, scratched and dented, plus there are a couple of green verdigris spots (notably on the Y of PENNY). This is really going to reduce any collector interest in this coin, and therefore the value.
There are four varieties of 1875 penny: "small date", "normal date", "large date", and "H mintmark". The H would be located directly below the middle of the date and I don't see it. I'd reckon yours is "large date", but there isn't really a price difference in terms of the date-size varieties. https://en.numista.com/855
Maybe worth a dollar or two?

Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis
