    Saw this in a lot of coins i purchased and the reverse is questionable.The coin is aligned properly but as you look.One cent is rotated in the wrong spot and a T is right in the middle.Could this be some kind of overstrike?I couldn't find a date.

    I think these were made from 1858-1882, but I can't be sure....

    The coin is heavily heavily worn and deeply corroded. I don't know what you mean by "the T's in the middle. There may be a slight rotation from Obv to Rev, but nothing striking. The Obv you show is rotated clockwise about 10 degrees. Hard to tell anything from the photo. I'd just give it a kind and gentle burial.

    Ok guess its nothing major then after all.If you zoom in closer for the circled area you'll see what I'm reffering to.

    To those who may need help what I suggest is to save the image as a photo to your device,then print it out on your printer. Save the sheet for future reference.
