It's not double struck because that would lead to the design details also being doubled. Doubled letters are pretty common for that kind of era and are mostly caused by the letters/numbers being re-cut into the die. It's particularly common on farthings. It's good to see the bodged wonky lettering but I imagine it would be hard to find someone to give you more than the normal going rate for it. Small coins are the least popular unfortunately, unless they are something really exceptional.
