Tony M Apr 9, 2015:
Please note FR makes a distinction between an 'authenticated copy' and a 'duplicate original'.

One often finds expressions like « Fait en deux originaux » etc. meaning that they are duplicate originals, instead of one's being a copy of the other.

duplicata de l'original

un duplicata de l'original certifié conforme

IOW, it refers to a notarised copy of a 'duplicata' (Latin for 'replacement' or 'substitute') of the original document (which has probably been lost, destroyed or otherwise 'disappeared'). When a 'duplicata' is issued, it takes on all the characteristics of the 'original' which it replaces.

Asker hasn't informed us of the target jurisdiction/readership; 'certifié conforme' is the standard phrase used in French-speaking Belgium (and maybe elsewhere...) to qualify a notarised copy of any original (or 'duplicata' thereof).

un duplicata

Bonjour.
Je crois que le mot "duplicata" suffit à rendre qu'il s'agit d'un deuxième original.

"Deuxième exemplaire d'une lettre ou d'un acte officiel (facture, contrat, certificat, etc.) de valeur égale à l'original et pouvant en tenir lieu."

Salutations.
