The image on the reverse of the other cent would have been pressed into the surface of your coin, producing the reverse (mirrored) image. Or, maybe it's a genuine error! I expect the error experts on the forum will know the real story. Report this Post to the Staff

biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 01/30/2007 4:14 pm To me, it looks like a glue impression i.e. two coins glued together then pulled apart, leaving behind a design in the glue remaining on one of the coins. This is my opinion because it appears that the affected area has a distinctive border around it with a decidedly unnatural look to it. Does it feel like the area is raised above the normal surface of the coin? Report this Post to the Staff
