Photo of obverse? Weight? Very odd.......possibly a strange case of acid dipping while the coin was sitting at an angle?

to CCF. Acid or heat damage. Just a FYI: in would be called a doubled die not a double die.

Thank You so much for your time and for the correction. I'm having difficulty taking a clear pic. On the ELIZABETH II font and down her back is similar, just not as strong.
Thanks Again, I'm off to get some better equipment and a stronger vocabulary.

The coin's weight is needed (to at least one decimal place) for this one.
