Lincoln Kennedy Penny Question

I recently found a Lincoln Penny with a profile reproduction of Kennedy looking at Lincoln. It is uncirculated, the penny says 1975. It is on a paper that has coincidences between Kennedy and Lincoln. It also has at the very bottom: "Planters and Stockman Bank, Your Friendly Bank, Full Service Member-FDIC Pocahontas, Ark."
I don't know anything about it. Is it rare? Is it something I should put up and keep safe? Thank you to anyone who answers this thread.

The coin itself isn't rare, even with Kennedy counterstamped into it. The fact that it still has the paperwork with it is rlatively uncommon. I'd put it away as something to save, but I'm a packrat too. It has no added numismatic value since as far as coin collectors go, the counterstamp is considered damage, but if you could find someone who collects Arkansas bank memorabilia then you might get something for it.

good luck!
