expat Posted September 7, 2023 · Supporter Share Posted September 7, 2023 I was intrigued by this and spoke to my friend who is a dealer in Spain. His opinion is it was struck over another reverse. After asking the opinion of @Roman Collector he like me thinks that it was double struck. Anyway, my friend offered it for 30 Euros as I had ordered 2 other coins. They arrived this morning.
