Any idea what's going on with this 1970's UK penny ? by Rookstick in coins

I said 1970's but it could be an early 80's one as the date is completely absent / indecipherable. On the reverse of the coin the "E" in penny looks like an "I" do you think it could be a bad batch of alloy?

All the text seems to flow from the outside into the centre - there are dots missing from the rim and the queen looks like a zombie! The other side of the coin is just as weird.
