I'm new at collecting. I found this coin with errors on the obverse and reverse. Would someone be so kind as to tell me what I found. Thanks in advance.

Not an error.
It's called a vise job. Just damage PMD
Someone has squeezed two coins together.
You can see where some of the copy is in reverse.

Note the incuse devices are mirrored. If this were a doubled struck coin the devices would all be raised and normal. (not mirrored) I agree a Vise was used on the coin.

As mentioned ,it's a vise made error.The mentioned details of reverse and incuse devices plus the use of a 1972 and 1970 coin indicates that it is not a mint error.
