Looks like it may have been "upset" in a press. 99% sure this is post-mint damage.

Looks like the coin was removed from a 'Good Luck' holder pushing it out from the reverse with a dime. The reverse show the pressure bent it through the center. Too bad they didn't leave it in the holder, it would have been worth more than it is now!
Rest in Peace

I agree with Coop. It's an Encased Cent that was damaged when removed from the encasement. Someone could have done a better job removing this one.
