Agree, pics of both sides needed. Obviously not a mint error.

It is either PMD of some sort or a struck through.
Full photos of both sides might help in determining the cause

this looks incuse - a very strange counterstamp.
overall, a damaged coin.
Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on

After seeing both sides I agree with it being a counterstamp, which is considered PMD

Looks like a creative use of a flathead screwdriver and a hammer.

Also, welcome to CCF and very nice job on these pics. They are well above average for the typical first thread.

Hammer into the surface on the obverse. How can I tell? Note the reverse side of the coin. That area is pushed outwards. Post strike damage. Interesting, but not a premium for the coin as it is now a damaged coin.
