A double print penny, often referred to as a double die penny, is a coin that has been minted with a mistake where the design appears twice, typically due to misalignment during the striking process. This results in a noticeable doubling of features like the date or lettering. Such errors can make these coins highly sought after by collectors, often increasing their value significantly compared to standard pennies. The most famous example is the 1955 double die penny, which is particularly prized in numismatic circles.
Sounds like a possible capped die error -- worth $50-$100. Check out Mike Byers' Error Coin Website -- http://mikebyers.com -- and perhaps you can send pictures to him for an exact appraisal.
It's very difficult to say exactly how much an error coin like you describe is worth -- there are no printed price lists for this kind of stuff.
