We usually call these "parking lot" cents, although the damage could have been caused by any number of methods. Definitely a spender.

If you toss one out in the street for a year you can have yourself another "cool coin".

I like it Iron Cross. Think I will string out a series from 1965 to current and make a complete set.

Looks like recycling would do this cent a favor.

Post Strike Damage. We call these "Parking Lot" coins. Most likely was in a parking lot for a while.
