Sto-key New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 12/19/2021 10:00 pm Thank you all for responding so quickly. And for educating me on the now obvious signs of what makes this coin a vise job. Even though this coin was nothing special, it has definitely sparked an interest in coins, and collecting. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Each image represents one side of the penny. I'm fairly new to coins and the errors the errors they have. Found this at the bottom of my purse today, noticed it had the same image on both sides, and looks like the image on each side has been stamped multiple times. It's really hard to see what exactly happened to the coin, but wondering if I could get a little insight as to what errors the coin has. Thank you in advance and please let me know if I need to upload more pictures. Edited by Sto-key 12/20/2021 09:52 am Report this Post to the Staff

This is b/c someone squeezed the coin you have between two other cents using a vice. The outer coins' designs were impressed into the middle coin.

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 12/20/2021 02:48 am This is what as known as a "vise job" as it was created in someone's basement in a vise. It is impossible for an error like this to occur at the mint, this was someone's "get rich quick" idea. This is post mint damage. Notice the backwards lettering? Vise job. to the CCF!
