Nice 1975 penny but, is it special ?

This penny here looks like devices are thickened and it's in pretty good condition. So what does anyone else think? Recirculate ? Or keep?

I would have been a nice coin to set aside fresh out of the Denver Mint at the time, but think about this...this is 1 (one) coin out of 4.5 billion, that's with a B produced in Denver that year. Hardly worth saving in AU condition.

That was the year that they switched from copper to zinc, so you have both varieties that year. Since you said that you threw the coppers in a different jar, I was curious if you went to the trouble of separating them for that particular year.
