Doubling on the big 2 and the 20 in the date.
Can't quite decide if it's a legitimate doubled die or Machine Doubling. Opinions?

I'm not really an expert at Foreign coins, but this looks to be pretty heavy MD

I think more like Die Deterioration Doubling. It is really tough to say, given the degree that the coin has circulated.

Thanks for the opinions. I pretty much agree, and fortunately I'm not out a large chunk of change buying the coin.

It's sometimes hard to judge true doubling or not just from the pics in an ebay listing, and sometimes I just have to take a flyer on spec. You win some and lose some.
