I know it appears to be machine doubling. Yet, on the lettering of United I see lines about half way up the letters of T, E, and D. I did not think this would fall into the machine doubling category. Also, along the edge of the memorial and the top of the first column there is 'doubling'. I do not know if the pictures will show exactly what I am trying to explain. But I am going to give it a try.

Where did the pictures go? Electronics and computers always take advantage of my limited knowledge. Guess I will try to do this again.

My guess would be a worn die. The p mint mark is very weak and the IN in IGWT appears to be raised above the rest of the motto, could be just has an extra raised area surrounding it due to die damage. Could someone please post an opinion?
