Can you post a picture?

Welcome to AAPK! Directions for posting pictures can be found here viewforum.php?f=98. Scroll down until you find directions applicable to your device (Android, iPad, PC, etc). We’d like to see your knife.

However what you have described does not add value. The only “factory error” I know of that increases value is the Case Cheetah where a small number having an extra “1” in the pattern number were made and released before the mistake was caught. The others like yours are simply one-off curiosities.

But show us the pics anyway - you never know.

Normally blades are stamped in an O press, where the operator puts the blade, tang first on the fixture and then, while holding the blade, hits a foot switch which strikes the tang. Sometimes you get a double tap, or hit the switch before the tang is correctly seated on the fixture. Looks like someone forgot to throw that one in the reject pile. Still makes for an interesting conversation piece.

Double stamps happen. Some collectors seek them out, others shun them. Either way, it is what it is. At least the knife has a tang stamp that lets you know what it is. I've got one that has nothing on it, absolutely no tang stamp whatsoever, even though it's obviously a Case knife.
