Hey, came across this one in $30 hand rolled pennies. I got some wheats and old canadians plus more than 50 extra pennies. Any ideas?

I'm not an expert but it kinda looks like after mint damage. Like someone stacked 2 pennys back to back and hit it with a hammer. causing the impression of one penny on the other and the face to be flattened in the impact zone......?

My observation. :dontknow:

Mojo
 
I agree with mojo, I have found several like that, someone put two together and smacked em with a hammer
 
If you can read the letters it is a genuine mint error If the letters are reversed than its the old smackeroo.
 
brokage, how much u want for it?? something like that on ebay will sell between 10-200.
