Hello, I need help determining the type of the error in this coin as well as considering the overall condition, what will be the approximate worth of it?
It weights little less than 10 grams. The entire coin is bent. The mintmark is either missing or located at the very bottom of the rim and is somehow enlarged.
Thanks in advance.

the mint mark below the wreath is no longer visible.
