this coin appear to have been struck three times, with two circular indentations on the 7 and 9 o'clock positions, can anyone tell me the value of this coin and link to any coin that is similar. unnamed.jpg

Can you post closeup pics of the Obverse (Front) and Reverse (Back) of the coin as well as closeups of the possible extra Strike areas? To be honest, from what I can see from the one pic, it appears that the extra Strikes may have been man made and not done at the Mint during the minting process. If it is real, then it would be consider as "Triple Struck".

It looks to me like someone just damaged the coin, the affected areas don't seem to have the round shape of the dies, they look too straight. Better pictures as Huntsman suggests may tell a lot.
