@pen, it sounds like you are describing the situation where an existing coin was fed into the presses at the mint and restruck. While possible, it is far more likely that someone has attempted to manufacture an error. Pics will help us to better tell what you've got there. Thx.

PenKneeMan-
First of all, the Mint does not scrub or reuse old coins. Every coin struck is from a new planchet.
From what you describe, you may have what is called a vise job..
Interested in seeing your coin, please post a clear photo of both sides..
Rest in Peace

JimmyD , who in their right mind would press a rare 1856 FE into a common 1957-D Wheat cent .

Denver didn't start striking cents until 1911-D. Chances of having that die? Zero.

It could be a $3 Chinese fake pressed into it.
