What Emacs version are you using?
Mine is:
"GNU Emacs 27.1.50 (build 9, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.22.30, cairo version 1.15.10)
of 2020-11-14"

Nothing very interesting:
```
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Invalid modifier in string")
read(#<buffer test.el>)
elisp--preceding-sexp()
elisp--eval-last-sexp(nil)
eval-last-sexp(nil)
funcall-interactively(eval-last-sexp nil)
call-interactively(eval-last-sexp nil nil)
command-execute(eval-last-sexp)
```
