Mint error? Garage job? Parking lot incident?

I'll go with mint error but how the heck do you get that into a paper roll ?

Looks like a mint error. Likely escaped thru a mint bag instead of a roll.

Certainly a genuine double struck cent. Nice coin!

I love how the memorial and parts of United and One got stretched and warped. To me no doubt it happened at the mint, but how, I have no clue.

Maybe they should be and have us move onto a better metal for the cent coins.

I like it a lot.

I'm also with kbbpll about the reverse "stretching". Looks like it's being drawn into a black hole!! LOL
