Hi there,

I've got a $2 coin that has the Queen's head on both sides, also, the Queen is depicted with a different crown on either side. There are two different dates, 1998 and 2006.

Can anyone give me any info on this coin? Thanks

I have never seen a Two Dollar coin where the design detail is so indistinct.

Has to be fake.

Normally the first assumption on finding a "two-headed coin" would be a Magician's coin ,but in this case, unless something's gone horribly wrong with the picture and it isn't really as fuzzy and blurry as it looks in the picture, I would agree with the above consensus that it's best to assume the entire coin is a counterfeit.

@Sezzajaycee - - It appears to be a poorly cast, counterfeit coin/medal.
