Correct Me if I'm wrong but wouldn't a vise job leave an incused design on one side? Both appear to be on some relief.

It depends on what is used as a "buffer". Sometimes wood, sometimes plexiglass, sometimes just a softer metal than the coins.

When I was much younger the coins I put on the tracks would bounce off. Duct tape was the answer. This was not a train coin. Pennies came out like paper thin. Dimes not twice their size. Couldn't afford to waste quarters. Loonie didnt exist.

You should see what fish hooks look like after a train runs over them ... neat. Had to go over 4 sets of parallel tracks to get to our fishing hole on the Mississippi River .. lots of fun with things on the track. And throwing rocks to get through both sides of the open freight cars ..harder than it would seem when they are moving fast.

Maybe a double die clash of the reverses, or a vise job. Definitely PMD.
