When a blank planchet is struck by the dies, the normal procedure is for the feeders to eject the struck coin out of the collar and into a chute. If there is a malfunction and the struck coin isn't ejected, it may receive a second or third strike by the dies. A multiple struck coin can happen in many ways and have many combinations of errors.
A planchet is feed into the coinage press and rest inside the collar on the anvil die. After being struck, the anvil die moves upward, raising the coin, the coin is suppose to exit from the coinage press and go to a collecting area.
If the coin was not eject properly after having been struck and falls partially inside the collar, it will be struck again. This is how we get the Double Struck Off-Center Error coins.
