Has anyone ever seen this on a Lincoln center before? I've never seen or heard of on being engraved. Is this is some kind of special edition or did someone vandalize this coin?

It's a counterstamp coin. They show up all over the place. There's a thread here: http://goccf.com/t/126486

People collect them and sell them - so, nice find!

Lincoln cents were heavily counterstamped. One was a series with each state.

Right, counter stamped for a selling website to make these seem collectible at a premium. Don't fall for it!!
