Joseph405 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 02/02/2020 3:29 pm I placed this Penny next to a regular 2019 Penny for comparison. The 1963 Penny is on the left. It looks like it was smashed really hard or more than once as the outside edges are raised up. It was in my pocket change so I must have got it from a store. Any info on this thing? Regular ol Penny?

Second, when I rotate, crop, enlarge, and enhance your pic, it looks to me like it is a smaller diameter than a regular cent. Someone may have spooned the edge of this one, although the fields are quite shiny.
