Is this a true 55 double die obverse and reverse

Was wanting a few opinions,
And maybe a lil insight

Pics are a little blurry but in my opinion : Machine doubling .
Here's "The Real Deal" .

 

I'll try to get some more clear shots for you all

 

NO.

 

No need to do that.
Your date is clear. It is just Die Deterioration doubling. Not a true Doubled Die

The correct numismatic terminology is Doubled Die.
Not double die.

 

Thanks

 

Check out reverse

 

Nope.

 

100% nope.

Not a DDO

 

Noope

 

Get yourself a Yeoman Red Book. The “real deal” is featured prominently in the wheat ear section. @Mattellis

And, you’ve got work to do on in-focus close-ups. @SensibleSal66 provided the pics for the true variety everyone looks for and wants, but I disagree on the MD.

Your lighting angle is highlighting the edges of the details (what remains), and IMO, that is mimicking machine doubling…I see no doubling on this coin, machine/mechanical or otherwise.

There are many threads here on CT that you can find to improve your coin photography skills…Spark

 

@Mattellis - I have seen that called the "poor man's" version.

 

Almost but no. It is also not a poorman. Sorry, thanks for the post, good luck.

 

I disagree. That would be a Poor Man's DD.
See the deterioration issue to the right of the last 5?

 

Sorry paddyman. Just my opinion. It may be a very poorman, but I wouldn't buy it. Thanks for the correction.

 

Yes, of course…hard to spot with the wear and blurries…Spark

 

If you had one there would be no doubt.

 

I only see a circulation worn cent.

 

no need to
