20 PENCE COIN MULTIPLE ERRORS

[stoll]

hi all, i have this 20 pence coin and the queen has 2 crowns. one as usual and 1 going from the forehead into the hair.so a fair distance apart. thers also a blob on the ear and eyebrow. on the reverse the cross which is on top of the crown has been duble hit.

i just wanted to know if it's been seen before or is it actually a rare one

the pictures arnt the best but i hope they show enough

thanks

Its possible that the top of the cross is a possible doubled-die? The problem is that having it on both sides is more of a sign of strike doubling, a one-off error that is worth substantially less than a true doubled die. The blobs would be die breaks, also one-off errors (although with a large enough sample size you could see how the die breaks progressed, although that is nearly impossible with something as common as the 20p)

Its worth more than 20p, however I can't really tell you how much more because I'm not really sure what the market would be over there. If it was, say, a dime with those errors in the US it would run in the $3-5 range.

I think it's safe to assume that your 20p has no value over and above face, Stoll. Bung it on eBay and you might get a quid.
