    rickmp Frequently flatulent.

    IMO, it's from a hit. Copper is a soft metal. A hit would move the 1 from its original position.

    I was thinking about a 1974 modified but the angle of the 4 would be different

    Ditto!

    You can see where the "1" used to be. This happens frequently in circulation and is not the first time something like this has been posted here.
