Right side looks completely abraded, while there seems to still be a whisper of the connection on the left side. Not sure that there is a ton of numismatic value in these, but you certainly could keep it until an even better example comes your way.

These are fun to find, yes. Sadly, you'd need a few hundred of these to buy a Happy Meal.

Also a floating roof is not an error.
It is caused by overpolishing the die and can occur on
any year Memorial cent. Quite common.

Quite common.

If this is your first one then you may want to keep it.
