Two coins were put together, possibly between two boards, then hammered to impress the design, in reverse, from one coin into the other. Or, as has been mentioned, two coins were put together in a vise and squeezed for the same result.

Folks do report new errors here every day, so keep searching.

At first glance one would assume double strike or partial broackage, but we can tell it is PSD from a vice
