I first thought it was a Dryer Coin but the saw the other side was perfectly fine. The rims are raised and the width of the coin is way larger than a regular penny from the 1970. Thoughts?

1975-Penny?

Nice error and I love the date(my birthyear) You have a cent that was struck through a capped die. For US cents at least, examples with a legible date are worth a little bit more than an illegible date

Would there be any added value. Looks pretty severe. By the way found it while coin roll hunting.

Typically, dealers sell these coins, circulated from $2 to $5 - priced only slightly more than a circulated clip.
