    Yes, you are wrong.
    Mint Marks cannot be Doubled Die because they were hand punched into the die during that time.

    The rest of the lettering is die deterioration doubling. Considered worthless doubling not related to a true Doubled Die Variety.

    Paddy is correct, die deterioration from overuse of the die causes it. Look at the lettering near the edge, its almost touching the edge, an indication , Jim
