Ive recently been going through all my saved pennies and came across this seemingly 1979 penny and have never seen one before with so many issues as this one. Can someone tell me what's wrong with it like how it happened and if its rare or any value?

On the first picture at the top right of penny it looks like there is an ear imprinted in it. Do you agree?

to CCF. It is PMD,Post Mint Damage. How it happened is anyone's guess. Not rare and worth one cent.

Spent time on the street/parking lot, run over and squished around numerous times, still worth 1 cent, may not make it through a Coinstar tho...
