So I found this penny in my pocket change and havent seen anything like it. appears to have 2 rims or atleast a partial 2nd on front of coin also appears to be 2 seperate coins put together, but still the same thickness as a normal penny. i have only came up with the questioning of a possible trick or magic coin although this penny doesnt seperate for another coin to be place inside. hope someone can help thanks!

It appears to have had an issue with the collar when struck??? Not sure though. I would hang onto it until a more positive responce is arrived at.
