Could it have been an off-centered first struck brockage that got restruck with full collar deployment the second time? This may be a "mint-asststed" error. A mint employee intentionally tossed a defect back in the chain? I don't think so, because of the brockage hampering full collar deployment second time around, answered myown question, I guess....?

The mark on the right wheat lines tip to the EPU is pressed outwards from the soft die on that was used on the obverse. If it were a die/second strike, that line would be a wheat stalk that would be raised. As it is the soft die had edges that made that raised area on the reverse of the coin by pressing into the coin on the obverse.

I can't think of any other way to create this. It wasn't there on the strike. PSD

I was hoping there was more to it than that. Just another coin that someone decided to deface.

Keep it as a defaced coin to show to new collectors. Mention how someone altered it with a soft die and the opposite side would have been also been affected if it were the read deal. (educational piece)

I stumbled across this old post and am really curious about this one.

As others mentioned, the correctly facing right wheat ear design above the N and E in ONE suggest this is a legit error.

How the first strike was limited to the date and wheat ear is puzzling.
