@Jbedwell, this doesn't look like an error to me. Rather part of the letter W has been scraped over to the middle of that letter. As I recall, this can happen when coins are used in old time vending machines like gumball machines. I will say that on your coin, this transfer of metal is especially clean-looking.

Right, a random hit reconfigured the W.

Nice find! It's a Woody, caused by a Improper Alloy Mix. http://www.error-ref.com/improper-alloy-mix/
