So, one could say that this is a "collectible" form of Machine Doubling?

I'd certainly say so....but then again, I collect extreme regular Machine Doubling too.

Quite collectable. I paid anywhere from $50 - $75 when I was collecting examples in an effort to figure out what kind of error this was. I'd still buy a coin like this for $25.

This is a rare form of Machine Doubling called "one-sided, rim-restricted design duplication". The obverse (hammer) die bounces up, shifts to one side, and lands lightly on the design rim.
