Great find! That's called a "BIE" error, because the Die Chip looks like a "I" inbetween the "B" and "E" of "LIBERTY". These are fairly common in the 1950's Lincoln Wheat Cents, but they're still worth a small premium, so it's a keeper.

That's definitely an error as E&V pointed out. Does it have a mintmark? If not, you have a unique coin that can be added here:

If it has a D or S below the date, that changes everything. You can still find the catalog for those in the link above.
