to the CCF, coinmansouth1! There's enough information in the pics you posted to diagnose your coin. The backwards lettering indicates that this is a vise job or hammer job - coins were squeezed together in a vise or hit with a hammer, transferring details from one coin to another but as mirror images. This is post-mint damage and not an error.
Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures

@coinmansouth1 - Appears to be a vise job plus having other damage. Zinc problems (99.2% zinc; 0.8% copper).
