Brockage' refers to a numismatic mistake in which one side of the coin has the normal design and the other side has a mirror image of the same design impressed upon it. Brockage errors are caused when an already minted coin sticks to the coin die and impresses onto another blank that hasn't been struck yet, pressing a mirror image of the other coin into the blank. From the Tareq Hani collection
