Of course, it's double counting.  What conservation law are you referring to?  Please state the law as you know it.

Do you have any experimental evidence to support your conclusion about equal amounts of energy in the outside magnetic field and also contained in the conductor?  Even your cobbled together equations don't support your claim.
