If so, one coin was still in die when another struck. Which is pretty cool, and I'd imagine quite rare. Good find.

The question you need to be asking now is.... is it the Tall Trees, and if so, is there differences between the 42 Tall Trees die and the 44. Even dug, a 42 Tall Trees brockage would have a lot of interest.
