Hello, I found this while coin roll hunting today. It looks to me like an error, but I'm not sure. It looks like the reverse of the coin was put on the observe.

I believe that is a late stage brockage.

what you have is a late stage brockage. a coin was stuck to the die resulting in it striking the coins instead of the die, since the coin on the die was a positive(raised) it struck negatives(incused and reversed). as it struck coins it started to spread out resulting in the large distorted image you see on your coin. great find and a cool error.

As others have said, this is a late-stage brockage.

Could it have something to do with stage brockage? It looks similar to a topic from earlier, not the coin but the way its explained of it reason.
