43 Steel Wheat need second opinion

Im not sure on this one. I have been staring at it off and on for hours. I see what I think is doubling in the 4 and the s as well as some shadows under the nose and chin, there is a faint line that looks like doubling under the bust and some in the word god. I tried my best to take the best pictures I could. what you guys think??

No need to stare at it anymore!
I have figured it out.. Die Deterioration Doubling and Mechanical Doubling.
Both are worthless doubling. No true Doubled Die variety.

 

still nice condition to put in a folder though

 

How can you tell? There is no image of the reverse.

Here's a few of the reverse, I got a bunch of these both Philly and San Francisco in similar or better condition.

 

im talking about the whitman folders that only show the front

 

I didn't know that Whitman makes albums for just half of a coin. How does the Mint make them with only one die?

now, no more of this thread hijacking

 

Do they make an album for the Reverse, too?

Sorry, I couldn't resist!

Chris

 

im not sure, i havent seen them. now no more hijacking

 

Dude...it's not even your thread. Are you the self-appointed sheriff?

 

no

 

Funny, I came across this today just shortly after reading this thread. I'm still learning here but it looks to me like this one is the same machine doubling?

Machine Doubling. Not a doubled die.

 

ok I think I understand. thanks.

 

how about this one? especially on the Y T and the R.

 

By any chance, is that a1940 s?
