It's known as mechanical doubling or machine doubling and carries no numismatic premium. Here is an image to help that I did not produce-

Very common and worthless strike/mechanical doubling. Even if it was true hub doubling it would not be an error it would be a variety as every coin struck from that die would have the same feature.

Still a nice educational piece.
Great pictures! And you're looking in the right spot! 👍

It has some value as an excellent example to illustrate machine doubling. It's clear as could be on this one.
MD, good to have a sample piece 👍
