Welcome to Treasure Net !!
Not double headed; only a prominent part in his hair--as shown here:

I'm really sorry about the double posts and the fact I posted two pictures my phone is being incredibly difficult. But to clarify . That is the same coin. Head on both sides . No date . Pre 37

Take the coin out of the 2X2 and examine the edge for 'cut and paste'.

As a teenager 40 years ago and coin roll hunting I found a two tailed Jefferson nickel. I thought I was rich and called dad at work to tell of my find. When he came home that evening he took a roll of nickels and put the two tailed one in the middle and set them on edge down on the table. The two tailed nickel was smaller in diameter than all the others. He then explained to me how some of mankind are cheaters and frauds and how this coin was made to take advantage of others.
Anywho, maybe doing the same thing will show it is smaller in diameter and therefore you'll know it's not a mint error.

This type of thing was frequent in shop classes in school 45-50 years ago. Take a few coins, lathe them down, join them. There were a few different methods, but the result was the same. Look up "making a two headed coin". There will be, amongst the normal search engine fluff, several tutorials on how to make them.

the right fits into the left-- you can make a 2 head, 2 tail, rotated die and Scotch & soda trick coin.
found 4 2 head Jeffs.
as with all these "trick", "fakes" the weight is usually never correct.
beware--- scammers will try any way to leave a large gap between you and your money
