Its a doubled die. Two pairs of devices that are rounded and notching in the corners that show that it is a nice one. Nice separation. Very nice find.

I'm confused ,You said it's labeled re-engraved? What does that mean? Is it Slabbed and who Slabbed it?Is it a Graded coin? Looks quite real to me also.

Is it slabbed? It is probably real, but re-engraved as you said, comparing it to the "smoother" Monticello building above. Who does that?

This is without a doubt the Red Book listed doubled die.

Sounds as though the seller just didn't know the terminology. Maybe from another country?

We acquired it in the late 60's during a coin club show outside Boston...it's not slabbed; it's in stapled 2x2 and says, "re-engraved." We paid $20 for it back then.
I do not know what "re-engraved" means. It's not graded. At one time, someone wrote "AU" on the 2x but then crossed it out. It would easily be AU but for several scratches on the obverse.
