I would have called it "Uniface Obv.",
just because PCGS doesn't allow that
many letters/characters on their tags.

The PCGS designation would majorly reduce the price compared to the fluffy fu fu NGC attribution
The way to decipher is you really need to see the edge prior to purchasing an error like this. ~~> @FredWeinberg said:

But is it really uniface?
It's the kind of error you could send to PCGS, NGC, ANACS, and ICG and get 4 different error answers maybe even just struck through grease.
Glancing at the edge will give you more answers than hiring a Navajo Code Talker.
To Err Is Human.... To Collect Err's Is Just Too Much Darn Tootin Fun!

Was the piece shown already struck on both obv and reverse, and THEN sandwiched with a blank planchet and struck again?
Two planchets struck together at the same time, you got one of them, you are on the right track
A little bit of a die clash too. Nice pickup!
Are the forum Washy experts able to date this? Looks to be from the 80s(?)
Interesting... I had not seen one of these before....Very cool... Cheers, RickO
As EOC said, two planchets struck on top of each other, you have the bottom coin.
Had not either, with that designation.
