We will need much larger photos to see what may be going on. Likely a circulation hit on the date, but cannot determine for sure. Copper is a soft metal and can be easily moved/reshaped when hit.

Just a normal Wheat cent from this view. The die chips don't add a premium for this coin.

Add it to your wheat pile, or use if got a hole filler in an album. (I don't spend wheat cents)

@wili, first welcome to the CCF. Second, When I crop, enlarge, and enhance you pic, I can confirm that the number 9 sustained a hit and is now misshapen.

Ah, the power of large photos! Yes, the ding the 9 took is now clearly visible. Thanks Spence!
