I heard about penny smashing, where people flatten pennies into different shapes as souvenirs. I'm wondering how this practice is considered legal, given that it involves altering the shape of a coin, which is currency.

This activity does not violate any legal provisions as long as it is not carried out for the purpose of counterfeiting currency.
