Sorry, but we don't know what "mable" means; I think something has been mis-translated.
I'm seeing some ghosting, but I can't see any "huge clash".
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis

You are right about mistranslate about the Mable that mean there
The Mable of what I mean is the ghosting you mean actually and need help from the experts to explain it now

Pretty simple explanation. The obverse of the coin has a lot of empty space, so when the machine struck the coin, the shock went through to make a ghost image of the tiki on the other side of the coin. There are plenty of coins worldwide that frequently have this problem. The Churchill crown comes immediately to mind. It doesn't add any value.

The rainbow toning on shining luster surface on obverse is rare enough or not on other copper coins and this is the most beautiful piece that I have seen so far be honest to you

@thecollectible, sorry for the silence, but I'm not sure exactly what question you are looking to get answered. I see a very light ghosting on the obv that may be the tiki from the rev or else might just be a variation in the toning that happens to be about the same size and shape as the tiki. It is a little distracting and I would guess that some collectors who focus on toning might find it less pleasing than rainbow toning. Overall, I think you have a nice coin here; however, for less than $5 USD, you can find one on ebay that is even nicer. "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."
