I'm not sure what to make of this, experts, what do you say?

Nearly 75yo, took a hit, intimate contact with dirt, worn, dirty, someone’s reject, exchanged in many transactions, heads or tails, spun, twirled, dropped, picked-up, pocketed, pursed, tossed, caught, and met many other cents, nickel, dimes, quarters... a well circulated cent.
Coin Facts for comparison.
Thank you for your response, but if you look at the last couple or three pictures you can see it's like another s crossing the other. Certainly worn, no question there, but that doesn't seem like wearing down like the picture you posted. I'm far from expert coin guy, but looking at the 1946 S over D I see similarities but none recorded for the 45. At the bottom of S you can faintly make out the serif of a D, maybe I'm imagining lol.
I could be wrong of course, but a beat up coin I've never seen where metal builds up on a part of the mint mark. Is that common in beat up worn coins? Just because I've never seen one certainly doesn't make it non existent I know, but since I'm here learning from you, I'm up for the lesson. No hitting me with the ruler though lol.
Obvious post mint damage. No numismatic interest or value.
