What tool are you using to check out the DDs. I have a problem seeing the DD's. Thanks for your help.

Hello! :)

Can you describe what you see? I'm not familiar with US coinage.

I'm leaning towards machine doubling or mechanical doubling (MD) rather than DDO and DDR. Caused by the die being loose in the holder during striking rather than the making of the die itself.

Not seeing any doubling and not sure what the arrows are pointing at, just looks like circulation wear.
Also that is a Wide AM, not a Close AM.

I see some offsets in the Obv lettering and the date, but photos not clear enough to see for sure. In any case it is in small sections, not the entire Obv or Rev.
