Constantinopolis with unusual strike

This coin has an error that makes it look like the helmet is also turreted like a tyche.

It almost looks like a very well centered overstrike. I seem to make out some detail behind Victory in the right field, between the shield and Victory, and a possible imprint on the obverse by the sceptre.

Nice example though!
