Weird 3D Penny?

I have this 1982 penny where Lincoln's head is 3D, can someone tell me if its rare,worth anything, or just a home made thing someone decided to do?

Its commonly reffered to as a punchout. Probably worth about $5 to the right person ,maybe more.

I posted in a Thread about these a while back. If you want to see af ew more check it out.

I have one also.
I got it from my boss at print shop were I worked in Bakersfield California
- I was told it came form a printing convention in about 1986-87 (location unknown)
- I was told it was pressed on some sort of Heidelberg press (?)
- I was told it was done as a demonstration
So I assume there are many thousands floating around out there
although yours was the first I seen on the internet.
