It's a wrong planchet error. From the pictures, I think it is struck on a bronze planchet, making it red!

Remember this one? It recently came back from CCCS. It will now ride in the coin show case, waiting for the right buyer. I collect 1c errors, but to me, this is a 25c error. Not a bad find, from the bottom of a mint bag!
