British Halfpenny with Two Obverses

Choice glossy medium chocolate brown with traces of frosty lighter brown in protected areas. Struck with two obverses that are aligned head-to-head. It appears one side was struck from the die and the other was struck against a brockage impression of the same obverse. An extremely rare type of error.
