I know there are lots of DDO varieties for this year, so I'm leaning towards yes, but then again I see spots here and there that might say machine doubling. I had to crank up the magnification for this one, taking shot of it only from directly above make it much harder to see.
If this in one of them, they got it wrong. These underlying images are chop-offs of the top or the main images. Take a good look at that B in LIBERTY. Also, the 0 in date.
I don’t see a doubled die but it is an rpm. The separation is well pronounced. There are many for this year. http://varietyvista.com/02b LC RPMs Vol 2/RPMs 1960D (1-60).htm
No one noticed the slight splitting on the serifs? Maybe it's just my imagination then. On the top of of the S and the bottom on the 9. Maybe it's cuz I have the coin in my hand? The 0 is the one that has me thinking cuz the small over large I once saw had that same radial. Not just the 0 but the 6 and the 9 also have grooves running down the centers, but only on parts. (not suggesting this is S/L btw, just similarities).
Hi, Tin_Man_0, I think the 5th photo from the bottom gives the most info. Here both the date and RPM show. As was said above, if it is an RPM, it is a small one. But on the "9", with this photo showing the whole number, notice the thickness is almost exactly the same thickness all along the number, including both ends, so any appearance of a dividing line can be considered to be just in appearance or at best a tiny machine doubling as a true doubling would cause the entirety to be wider. Also as you mentioned the '0' , notice that when we look at the whole number , it's width also stays almost the same thickness throughout, so the line through the middle of it divides it into sections that are only about half the width of the whole thing, so it is the same as the 9. And as others have said, very good photos to verify. Sorry it doesn't seem to be a true DD. IMO, Jim
