Hello All,
Just looking at at this large cent it seems like it could be some kind of offset planchet / offset error on the reverse. Or it could be post mint damage. But since the damage does not seem to be the same on both sides I questioned it. Just looking for opinions. Thanks!

Just damage and a bit of circulation to round things out.

@enz, I agree that this seems to be circulation wear plus some odd mechanical damage rather than a mint error.
