Someone has squeezed another coin on it leaving the impression. The fact that the letters are reverse and incuse indicates that. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/04/2021 6:56 pm The letters are mirrored and the rim edge gives it away. On doubled struck coins, you wouldn't see the incuse rim mark: Note the devices are normal and the there is no rim mark. Report this Post to the Staff
