Thank you for both web sites. I had not seen either of these before.
I appreciate your input.

 

I always post a site, this way you can look on your own, and book-mark the site for later use, good luck on coin hunting

 

This is a quote from doubleddie.com:

"The primary characteristic of mechanical doubling is that the secondary image (doubling) has a flat, shelf-like appearance. On genuine doubled dies the secondary image is raised and rounded just like the primary image."

Your image is not raised or rounded like the primary image therefore it is MD.

 

What you have is mechanical doubling.
