I've had this penny for the longest time and just came across it by accident. Thought it was special but now after watching the forum I'm guessing it is PMD.
Well worn 1940, had to magnify to show there is some detail.

Looks like some sort of environmental damage.

It looks to have a smaller diameter than a newer cent .. like someone has pared a little off the edge all around.

Kind of cool as a pocket piece...

Smaller diameter, hmmmm . Cross-hatch scratches on reverse.
Hmmmmm , something foul is afoot .Same diameter as a dime ?
Methinks possibly someone saved 9 cents in a parking meter.
Hmmmm.

The unsuccessful 1/2 of an attempt to make a fake error? Squeezed in a vise with another coin?
Part of the reverse has been flattened; the rim, C of Cda. date, and leaves have been squished. Most of 1 CENT and CANADA are intact. On the other side, the REX is crushed, but GEORGIUS isn't. Is the lettering cut or is it a raised rim ?

Can't quite figure it all out. Please post a couple more photos, that obverse is like a Rorschach test; I see a trident.
