Looks like MD to me, but the photo is really poorly lit. @Paddy54 @Rick Stachowski @furryfrog02

 

M.D.

 

Yeah shelf doubling. No actual premium but it does add interest, which folks will.sometimes pay for...

 

Looks like a nice AU50/53

 

Can't have a DDO on the date, the date wasn't part of the die when it was created. could be MD or RPD. I can't tell which from the image.

 

Possible repunched date, but I can't tell from the pictures. I'll check my Snow book tonight to see if that's a possibility. With a spread like that, strike doubling would tend to be visible elsewhere, too, although there aren't any other design elements close to the date.

 

Common machine doubling

I have one somewhere, before I knew better I got excited

 

Machine doubling. You can also see the MD in the wing. I have one very similar to it;

 

True ddo's on fec the eye of the eagle is the pick up point more so then other devices.

 

I don't see any repunched dates in Snow that match the subject coin, so I'm going to say machine doubling.
