This is common die deterioration doubling and not "doubling" at all .... it's from worn dies. Take a look at the smorgasbord of great info on various coin "doublings". Lots of links:

For supposed "scarce or rare" coin definitions, the Ebay vendors look for bumpkins who believe words rather than valid study or research. Those folks deserve to be taken for 4 digit $$$ buys.
