Split serif on the R?

 

The distinct "step" like appearance suggests machine doubling to me.

There's some good links and a great drawing in that post to aid with identification.

As a side note...those are GREAT close ups of the doubling. Top notch, could be used as examples, I think!

 

It looked rounded to me instead of "step like". I appreciate your thoughts though and would love to hear other's opinions as well.

 

It very well may be. I await the input of others as well.

 

I'll put my 2cents worth in... I think it will be MD, as I see no split serifs on the lettering, but all in all seems more likely to be the chatter type doubling

 

Thanks for the input/direction. Wouldn't it be odd for a mint proof set to have machine doubling?
