You have a vise job coin. The reverse lettering is a indicator on the obverse. Someone attempted the squeeze two coins together in a vise to manufacture an "error" coin. The attempt failed. Post mint damage, worth 25 cents.

First clues it is damaged.
1. Note the rims? The were normal, but some areas are flattened.
2. Note the incuse mark on the obverse. If it were an error coin, that incuse line would not be be there. Because it is there, it came from another coin. On an off center, this is not to be seen on a coin:

See the rim doesn't show on the off center. Just when you squash the normal coin with another coin will this happen.

Also note that if an off center happened, it would be the same on both sides of the coin. (Not on just one side like your coin.
3. On your coin the rims altered flattened different on both sides. Another clue it was an altered normal coin. If it were an error, the devices would show two sets of devices on both sides of the coin:

2001-Quarter-Kentucky-Double-Strike?-Pls-Help
A double set of designs would be seen on both sides equally:

2001-Quarter-Kentucky-Double-Strike?-Pls-Help
2001-Quarter-Kentucky-Double-Strike?-Pls-Help
2001-Quarter-Kentucky-Double-Strike?-Pls-Help
2001-Quarter-Kentucky-Double-Strike?-Pls-Help

So if something is seen on one side of the coin, the other side should be the same.
All the devices will be normal, none will be mirrored.

Hope this helps.
