It's a die clash. The obverse and reverse dies hit in the absence of a planchet. What you're seeing on the reverse is the transferred design of the tiara, and the outline of the leaf on the obverse. It's a strong clash. Nice coin!

I agree with the die clash, HOWEVER.. I don't know what that area around the reverse is under 1 Cent. Almost looks like a hallmark?

Very impressive die clash. That's the Maltese cross at the top of the tiara. Can you post pics as requested by cladhunter13 please?
