It is my understanding that they were hand stamped without great care of location of design on underside. In any case the one I have is not quite upside down but very close.
Correction
US Coins were never hand-stamped. If you look at the front right-side up and the reverse is right-side up when you turn the coin from top to bottom, this is the normal orientation for US coins.
