I think your coin is damaged and therefore would not have much if any premium value.

But I would only go up to 1/2 C in value since it wouldn't even fit into the gum ball machine slot because it's too bent.

As a second thought, I would not throw your coin away or anything. You could always use it as a test substrate determining how copper would react when exposed to various cleaning agent chemicals: muriatic acid, sodium bicarbonate, xylene or acetone - just to name a few of the more common ones.

This may prove useful when encountering a copper coin with a super clean and undisturbed patina etc. Since it's a scrap coin, I would just rub out each new spot left by a detrimental chemical so you can have a clean substrate for the subsequent chemical to be tried out.

Good idea, mdpmedia! But isn't that what Canada cents are for?
