1887 jubilee head half crown obverse doubling

Blackhawk

While looking at a 1887 jubilee head half crown that I got recently, I noticed that there was some substantial doubling on the obverse...easiest to notice was that on the lower bust of Victoria, especially the J.E.B. initials. Is there a variety such as this listed, or is this common on British coinage? Is there any premium associated with this? Sorry about the picture of the initials, I had to take it through a microscope lens.

Wow, that's some pretty impressive doubling. I think you did good with the pic, too.

Unfortunately, I haven't a clue.

Blackhawk, there is nothing noted in the catalogues about doubling for that year. Nice find and a very nice piece!
