Not an error it is damaged.
Someone has ground off the reverse.
If you would crop your pictures, they would be larger and make it easier
on us to see any problems

I don't think it's ground off I still see some of the reverse right in the middle. When I get home I'll upload pictures from my pc instead of phone

From what I can see from the very small photos, appears to be post mint damage ( PMD).

If it hasn't been ground off, then where is the rim.
You can't have a coin with a rim on only one side unless it has been removed.
Rest in Peace

@ Eerath , If you would have shown us the obverse first we would have told you it is a Jefferson nickel .

Still waiting on more pictures...

And as far as I can tell, it was ground or sanded - reduced in someway to obliterate the rim and reverse.

I do not think that there is an error that would happen like this. What I understand is that the error that is in question is Struck Through Grease. If it was a Greaser the rims would still be complete.

I somewhat fixed your image. This should help.

This pic shows the reverse was just ground down some.
