Best Answer

Philadelphia has never used a mint mark on cents.

You're probably seeing a mis-shapen D mint mark. Mint marks before about 1985 were quite a bit smaller and often clogged up in coin dies.

In any case there were well over a billion 1975-D cents struck so your coin is worth a penny.

It's not a Mint product. Private companies take ordinary cents, plate them with brass or a thin layer of gold, and stamp various symbols (Lincoln, state abbreviations, etc.) on them and sell them as "collectibles".

They're considered to be altered or damaged coins and have no special value to coin collectors. Some people do collect the sets but they have to be complete and in their packaging to have any extra worth.
