Hello again...

This photo is the reverse of a 1999 D cent. I was wondering if someone could tell me what kind of error is this termed?

Thank you!!

This appears to be a incomplete strike due to the depth of the device on the opposite side?
I would need to see the full coin image, obverse and reverse.
