How can you be sure it's genuine? Coin presses are made to prevent insertion of two heads or two tails dies so it's almost a dead-cert that you have a faked magician's coin.
Drop it on a hard surface and compare the ring to that of a known good coin. The 2-header will sound dull by comparison.
Get a good magnifier and look at the edge of the coin. The seam is often concealed near one side or the other, but it'll be there.

Double headed young Queen Victoria on both sides of the coin with no date?
The Canadian "double-headed" cent is equal to the British One Penny. The Canadian one "cent" is equal to the British 1/2 penny (so a British penny is 2 cents or 1 double-headed cent). When first issued, the Canadian government had them struck to a standard of 100 coins to the pound of bronze rather than the the British standard of 80 coins to the pound of bronze. The first 1858 issues, however, were unpopular and originally had to be sold at a discount. It is believed the Canadians joined the two cents together to make them equivalent to the British Penny.
