[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 4158245, member: 27832"]It looks to me like something smashed its reverse against another cent's obverse hard enough to distort this coin, and to press the obverse design (backward lettering and profile) into this coin's reverse. When you see mirror-image lettering or other details like this on a coin, you can figure that it's been squeezed against another coin. The damage on the coin's obverse is probably from whatever did the squeezing. This is all what we call "post-mint damage" -- not a mint error, and not collectible. Welcome to CoinTalk![/QUOTE]
