Hey guys, I got this from the ANA Mini-Mint. This was likely made for a presentation, so I suspect the ANA staff made this error intentionally. It looks like an off-center token at first glance, but upon closer inspection, it looks like something else. The design itself isn't off center, but the design just disappears around the middle portion of the coin. The reverse is kind of warped and has a mirrored impression of the obverse (like a brockage maybe). Help would be appreciated, thanks!

If it was intentionally done, then it can't be an error.
An error is generally caused by an unintentional
disfunction during the striking of the coin.

True! I may have worded it badly. I believe this is an educational piece simulating an error. I was wondering what type of error this token is simulating.

Off-center with reverse brockage?

For reference, this is what the token should normally look like
