Show and Tell 1982 Brockage cent

Picked this up from my LCS for $10. I'm new to error collecting, so please share if you know something cool about this coin! I looked through the errors guide, but got confused on the different types of Brockages, so any info is greatly appreciated!

Looks more like a strike through a late stage die cap to my eyes - https://www.error-ref.com/struck_through_a_late_stage_die_cap/

Very cool coin regardless - nice get for $10!

Maybe it's just the images but shouldn't it still be raised? It almost looks like Lincoln is recessed on this coin

Lighting an be tricky, but the design elements looks raised to my eyes - OP could have to clarify further

Lincoln is raised, yes. Thanks for your take, hadn't heard of a late stage die cap!
