It is the obverse of a 1958 Threepence. This particular coin I believe is a broadstrike brockage. It's diameter is 17mm instead of 16mm. I purchased it from ebay maybe three years ago as a mistrike. It cost $32.51 plus postage at the end of the auction. I was what I consider to be one of my first little gems. Now I just spend too much. I can't let cheap broadstrikes or brockages pass me. I'll start a brockage post today if I get a chance to photograph them.

Yeah mistrike is a very common term on ebay,people don't know what they are so everybody just calls everything mistrikes,i bought a clipped 20 cent coin not long ago described as a mistrike.
I look forward to seeing your pics.

Very sad to see people wasting so much money on fake errors. The guy making them is a worm.

Could'nt agree more Mark.
Problem is ebay have no idea if the coins are FAKE or back shed Errors or whatever,Ebay are always saying, We want your ebay experience to be a good one ( tell that to the poor bugga's that have been ripped off & probably don't know it yet, by scum like this )

re double sided coins.
I saw a noble's catalogue yesterday which had a few double sided coins in it.
There was a 1975 50c with 2 heads and a 1975 (how did they determine this?!?!) 50c with 2 tails.
There was also a 20c, but I am not sure what year it was.
