    I came across this 1929 Mercury Dime today. I thought it might have been a 1929 S DDO until I saw that it was a 1929 P. Machine doubling or a new die variety? What do you guys think?

    Sorry, thats the best I can do with my current set up. I'm pretty much a novice at photographing coins.

    Leadfoot there is no spoon

    That is what it appears to my eye (machine/strike doubling).

    I'm No expert, but In my opinion, it looks so out of place, no flatness, that I'd keep looking for a professional opinion on it. Especially the '2', as it is clearly two different twos on top of one another. Do post more pics please. You'd get more help with it!
