    What you are seeing is die deterioration doubling (DDD).
    This was the first year trying to strike new designs on the reverse and die were used well beyond their life expectancy. Their are many out their that are much worse.

    An error in judgement of how long to use dies without changing them. Well past their life cycle

    No Mint errors, just a die used well past it's prime. That's all but welcome to CT.

    Welcome to CT @slate. Good eye to catch this and as already mentioned by @Pickin and Grinin, it was struck from a die that was at its end of life. Check out some sites about this.

    Also, dies are cleaned and polished while in use, so you can get die abrasion anomalies.

    Not a doubled die, but a doubled post, one is sufficient. Welcome to CT
