I'm not sure what "mirror brockage" is, but, it looks like a mirror to me.
So, I voted Mirror Brockage.

Wow!
Coop. That's some Mercury error coin you got there!
How did that come into your possession if you mind I ask?
Is this in a TPG holder?

Stop drooling you'll short out your keyboard. It is a borrowed image. So it's not my coin. (I wish I had found this....)

Has the coin been flipped over like a coin normally would be (top to bottom)?

I said Mirror Brockage, but I really have no idea. Don't really think the bottom is the impression of the other the fonts are wrong...guess that means I should have voted "Unknown."

Ok, Mac you found it. But I had never seen one like this and thought it would be an educational one other would like.

I'd say that's cheap compare to 1916 D in MS.
