Wow that's something different, looks like another sovereign was stamped on that side. Wonder if it's legit...

Hi MattGold,
It looks legit alright!!
Its a full brockage. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brockage)
I'm assuming because gold is so soft, the detail transferred is outstanding.

BTW Walter, what an unbelievable coin!!
