    Sorry to hear... This is the multi error that came to mind that kind of fits your predicament image

    The earliest known Lincoln Wheatie Indent error -

    A 1919-? most likely San Fransisco minted larger diameter Broadstruck with obverse Indented.

    The indent occupies approximately 30 percent of the obverse design at 6 O'clock and it's also a huge broadstrike as the overall diameter is the size of a nickle.

    This error occurred when two planchets were fed between the dies blocking the collar die upon which a broadstrike resulted with this cent being indented by a second cent planchet on the obverse at 6 o'clock.

    I dont want to hijack the thread ( Good luck on the cleanup! Knock on wood I have been lucky not having many floods) but I did not know this type of error was called an "indent".

    I would have called it a broadstruck struck through a broadstruck, if that makes any sense.

    A strike through error designation would used be for some foreign matter that entered the minting process... This was indented by another planchet.

    Sorry about the flood. It's not my fault it was that stupid plant. It's happened before but this time I thought it would be different, I donno?
