The second impression on both sides is mirrored reverse. This indicates your coin was placed between two other cents and this stack was pressed together. This would have happened after the coin left the mint. Interesting but a damaged coin , not an error.

 to the CCF! I'm sorry to say, but it's a fake error. Someone has squeezed a coin between two others using a vise or press. If you do a search for "Vise Job," you will find lots of info on these. You can tell this one isn't real because the second image is in reverse. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!

Yikes they pressed so hard, it looks like they split the flan on this vise job. Maybe a hydraulic press instead of a machinist's vice on this one?

Yes top one because you gotta crop your images @coop.  "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

The reason I made the top image smaller, (only 1000 pixels wide) was because the original images were small. So I added the border to make the image my normal 1200 pixels wide.
