I recently got a good magnifier to look through my coins and notices what appears to be doubling on a 1892 1 Birr KM#19. I dont know if this is normal or not for this coin and I cannot find a good picture anywhere online that has good detail. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Machine doubled. The doubled area is flat, shelf like. From die movement during the strike.

So that would mean that there is no extra value of this coin?

Most machine doubled coins do not have a retail value only educational value,IMHO.

its value is the same as a normal coin for that issue.
