1853 6 pence, Cud error but also looks like doubling on the date

1853 6 pence. 

cud error running through the 5 in the date as well as either a doubling on the 5 and 3 or a overdate (3 over 2)?

anyways would love to hear you're thoughts on this 

I cannot find any confirmed or recognized overdate variety documentation for this coin  so I would say the date is doubled and the cud was caused by the failing die where the planchet shifted slightly when the planchett metal filled the void in the die.

yup its deffo just doubling and not an over date. had a look in better light with my jewellery loop today. deffo doubling on the 5 and 3. thanks for you thoughts much appreciated 👍 

Looks like a double up, but apparently there is an 1855/3 overdate on 1855 sixpences. The overdate is only marginally less common than the standard coin. Neither are scarce dates, 1855 is less common than 1853 (3.8 vs 1.1 million). But an interesting coin.
