    Look up "Vice job". Your coin is damaged. Not an error.

    Ok if it was a vice why are there no other indentations from the rest of the coin?

    You can see where the top coin was pressed into yours. Look all along that upper rim. The entire top coin wasn't pressed into yours.

    I agree with furryfrog. The incuse reverse lettering is a dead giveaway.

    It was squeezed in a vise with another coin. That's why it's backwards. PMD

    Only the top portion was put in the vice possibly. I have played around with my vice and coins to see the effect and this looks about right for a vice. Also there is no way for such an imprint to get on a coin at the mint.

    I agree with Vice job. Poeple do this alteration to make others think they might have a mint error.
    Why? Because they are bored and have nothing better to do. It is so sad.
