The structure on the reverse of the Penny is a "crowned" portcullis (or gate).

"Staw Penny" refers to an old US penny with wheat on the back, which was the design through the 1950s. Current pennies have the Lincoln Memorial on the back.

The dime doesn't have a picture of a building on it. The penny used to have the Lincoln Memorial, and the nickel shows Monticello.
The US mint was not in operation back then.
Nope. You have a novelty item made by cutting apart a penny and a dime, then hollowing out the back of the penny and popping the dime-half into it like the lid on a sandwich box.
There's never been a US dime with a building on the back. Cents, nickels, and half dollars at one time or another have had pictures of various buildings, but if you look at any of the dimes in your pocket you'll see that none of them have a building. Please see the Related Question for more details.
