    rickmp Frequently flatulent.

    Without quality photographs, no one will be able to help.

    Regarding photos, you can probably get away with putting a loupe or magnifying glass in front of your camera to get a closeup. It's not the best, but it might do the trick for us.

    Not a Doubled Die - I want to share this webpage with you - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doubled_die

    Note that the proper terminology for this occurrence includes the letter 'd' at the end of the first word, hence "doubled die". The term "double die" without the first word ending in 'd' is not proper numismatic terminology.
