It's not an error. It's a novelty item called a magician's coin that's made by cutting 2 genuine coins in half and joining the opposite sides. Computer-guided machinery makes the process easy and almost impossible to detect.
The expected value of the number of Heads in 1 toss of a fair coin is 0.5. So the expected number of Heads in 10000 tosses of a fair coin is ... 5000!

Assuming the coins are fair, two-sided coins, and landing on their sides is not an option, there are four possible outcomes if you consider coin a having a head and coin b having a tail being a different instance from coin a being a tail and coin be having a head. Here they are; Coin A | Coin B Heads | Tails Heads | Heads Tails....| Heads Tails....| Tails
There are 8 permutations of flipping a coin 3 times, or of flipping 3 coins one time. They are, with the permutations of two heads bolded...TTTTTHTHTTHHHTTHTHHHTHHH... thus, the probability of flipping a coin 3 times and getting 2 heads is 3 in 8, or 0.375.

The answer depends on what proportion you want the expected value for.
Three in eight are the odds of getting exactly two heads in three coin flips. There are eight ways the three flips can end up, and you can get two heads and a tail, a head and a tail and a head, or a tail and two heads to get exactly two heads.
The expected value of the number of Heads in 1 toss of a fair coin is 0.5. So the expected number of Heads in 10000 tosses of a fair coin is ... 5000!
A coin with heads or tails on both sides are novelty coins manufactured by individuals or companies. They have no numismatic value although some persons collect them and the value is determined by the buyer and the seller of each coin.
There are two sides to the coin, so the probability of getting heads or tails on one flip of the coin is 1/2 or 50%.
It's a novelty or magicians coin and is Not a product of the US Mint, as to value maybe 5 bucks
Two, heads or tails.

Yes, but it's a fake. It's a privately made novelty item called a magician's coin. Sells for a couple of bucks in a magic shop, no value to coin collectors.
Because you are thinking permutations rather than combinations. There are four permutations of two coins, but there are only three combinations, because it does not matter which coin is heads and which coin is tails. As a result, the combination of heads and tails has a 0.5 probability, while two heads or two tails each have a 0.25 probability.
There are two sides on a coin. The odds are 50:100, or 1:2. Half the time the coin SHOULD land on heads.
