    I'm sorry but I thought this thread was about me until I realized that I'm not interesting either.

    Is that over struck or double struck?

    Nice. Is this a type with portraits on both sides? Have you been able to identify it?

    I was wondering about that too; if the over strike of the reverse was with an obverse die.

    I see evidence of three strikes, including a flip-over and a possible brockage.
