    Welcome to CT
    First of all the images should be "FULL Images" not thumbnail.
    So with out better images I would say it is post mint damage.

    Looks like it could be struck with a Capped Die.
    Do you know the weight of your coin?

    The Reverse side has a Finned Rim.
    The Obverse I believe was struck with a Capped Die is @alurid stated.
    Neat.

    if weight is right, then it's not been tampered with.

    http://www.error-ref.com/full-uniface-strike/
    full uniface strike
    Also some call it a full indent.

    it's not the cupped uniface broadstrike, the 2nd coin in this scenario, where that one could become a capped die, this one pictured would be the one that was seated in the collar.

    a capped die, and I'm no expert, doesn't display such a flat blank side, there's some level of cupping or "bowling" effect.

    and yeah, I'd really appreciate better pictures of it if you could :)

    Uniface Obv. strike -

    another planchet was laying on
    top of this planchet when it was
    struck.

    The other coin will have a uniface
    reverse, and a normal obverse,
    probably with finned rims too.

    (from the striking pressure and there
    being two planchets in the collar.)

    The wire rim on the obverse side leads me to believe it is geniine

    i see a very rough outline of Roosevelt and would have guessed differently. Glad Fred Weinberg chimed in!

    Appears the OP is a "hit and miss" member that doesn't follow the forum regularly. Hasn't been on since this post.
