I was asked to weigh in. I see no evidence of more than one strike. So I would classify it as a broadstrike.

Nice looking error. So are the secondary nose and lips just an effect of the metal flowing outward? Similar to the outer devices that stretch towards the rim, especially the letters on the reverse? (Funny looking design on that "quarter"!  )) Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

The secondary nose and lips are an example of surface film doubling. It's caused by a thin film of lubricant on the die, the planchet, or both. A fairly common effect.
