I have never seen one, but it looks like a very nicely done counterstrike. You can see the evidence of the force of the punch on the obverse. Someone crafted a punch that neatly fit into the centre design of the 1964 dollar.
It is a lot like the counterpunched 1967 dollars that were done a few years ago or the 1965 dollars that were fitted with a centre plug.
. The coin is probably a little bit cupped now too.

If you can figure out what counterstamp catches peoples' eyes, you can make a bit of money.
I might have added that centre-plugged 1965 dollar to my collection.
That citadel coins 1967 dollar counterstamp is certainly interesting, but it did not sell (the starting bid was $125). However, it is not interesting enough to me to pay 6 times the going price for a regular dollar.
47P7, your coin was issued by prolific counterstamp designer Mel Wacks. I've attached a link to a catalog of his counterstamps (yours is listed on page 14). Also, if you search for "Mel Wacks" on ebay, you'll see a number of them for sale.
thank you all, the coin was listed, and is listed again, on German ebay. It is not mine. I just cam across it because it struck me as odd.. did not look at it as a counter stamped coin start price was Euro 40 link: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/Canada-Doll...124497890853
