So I found this at a job today. Looks like it was double hit but with the other side. Pictures are not the best, tell me what you think and if it has any value.
Thank you.

I don't know but it's pretty cool is it stamped in the penny
 

It appears to me from what I can tell from the pictures that it was pressed together with another cent in a vise or something.
 

It's a vice job,The devices on the obverse are reversed/backwards and incuse. The reverse is just damage from being squeezed.100% Post Mint Damage
 

Thanks for the responses, that looks about right.

100% agreed I got one before and sent it in to be graded and they said pmd
 

I also have a 1974 penny with the back stamped to the front, coincidence?? Just curious if I should check into it

It is dirty, I tried to get a shot showing its actually printed on the front but I'm not sure you can see it too good. Anyway, let me know what u think
 

Looks like glue.
 

Someone stacked up two pennies and hammered them as hard they could. Now you get that impression on the coin.
