it's a very cool mintstate and pretty unique! But lots of evidence of it being mint state such as die flow on the reverse and die cracks in the legends.. So, not a proof strike or Specimen.
The mint simply did things a little different back then, I've seen pieces similar to this but not nearly as extreme.. I'd wager it's just a lucky coincidence of certain die preparation as well as good storage of the coin so that it didn't tone over or end up in circulation, giving us a pristine example of this weird anomaly.
