Mint Error Double Strike 1797 George III Cartwheel Twopence Convict Love Token



The love token aspect is crudely done and not so appealing (as a love token), but wow, what a neat error.

    That is interesting. I've never seen anything quite like that.

    Never seen an error on a cartwheel before, but who that coin is ugly and seen better days. Surprised it went for so much too.

    It didn't sell. It just ended (unsold) at that asking price.

    Are you sure the double strike isn't post mint made?
