First, is this coin double struck, overstruck, or fake?
Second, if genuine is it A1, A2, or A3?
Many thanks for your assistance.

Per Charlton - all 4 varieties are found overstruck on 1811 one penny tokens of Samuel Guppy.

Yours is A1, ship on calm seas, period centered, laurel wreath with 6 sprigs - top 2 leaves are overlapping.

Thank you, 1960NYGiants. The reverse of this coin looks to be double struck with about 30 degree rotation. I looked at the Guppy tokens but they seem to be quite different.
