I dug this penny at a local park, has two overlapping circles punched out. Did this happen at the mint?

done with a punch of some type.
definately not a mint error.

still a cool find, I'd be proud to make.

not a chance that its an error
I don't recall anything in the minting process that would expose a coin to a small stamp / drill
bogus, no doubt
