    This is a Flip Over Double Strike with Obv Brockage. Coin in hand, I think there could even be a third strike, but either way, a cool error.[​IMG] [​IMG]

    I think it even has a small clip. Fit perfect with a second coin of this denomination.

    I know those older European Errors are pricey. I saw an early 1800's Irish Double Struck 2nd strike 50% Off-Center coin for about $1200.00.

    Thanks for sharing, @Pondering_Infinity. Really like your coin with both sides showing figure heads (due to brockage).

    Thanks, the double struck flip over explains the two obverse strikes, the brockage, is the negative image of the coins reverse impressed on the obverse. The torch in this case.
