I thought this reverse side is unusual with 2 issues. I am not sure what the definitions of the left and right side of the lincoln memorial. Can anyone let me know what these error are called? Thanks Lincoln-Reverse-Question Lincoln-Reverse-Question Lincoln-Reverse-Question

That is called a die clash...on the left you see the back of Lincoln's collar and on the right you see his beard and chin.

It is a die clash along with polishing lines resulting from an attempt to remove the clash. Not an error, just a normal part of the minting process.
