Damaged after it left the mint. Possibly damaged twice. The obverse looks like Coin Wrapping Machine Damage, and the reverse, perhaps caught and damaged in the automation process of the wrapping machine? How it was damaged is only a guess, as there are many ways damage can occur, but WHERE it was damaged clearer to see as there is nothing in the minting process that would cause this type of damage, so without question, in my opinion this is post mint damage ( PMD)

I am thinking it may ? be a vise job. Evidenced by the jaw face on lower part of the reverse, and rim imprint of another Cent on the obverse. Only about half of a pair of coins squeezed in the vice, to exert higher pressure.

Have deliberately left this comment open to further comment, so that we all can learn.

It is a worthwhile experiment to deliberately make spurious errors,
because that way, you get a much more intimate idea of how such spurious errors are made.
