    Can't really tell from those pics. Did you take fotos of your screen or over magnified the image.
    Try to get some in focus close ups and the knowledgeable members here will give you their best opinions

    Nice job with posting full-size pictures, but when you try and get up close, the camera/phone has to be VERY still or it isn't clear. Try sitting it on some support so it doesn't move. From what I can see, the doubling looks like what is called Machine Doubling (MD) which results from the die being loose and moving during the strike. An error, yes, but not worth any premium.

    Your photos are pixelized, so I can't tell anything

    What coin app are you using? I just use the camera on my iphone 8 and crop them.

    When I am not using a standard camera I place my phone on a soup can and if necessary adjust the height of the coin till it fills the screen. When you process the image it is best to then crop out all unnecessary background. This enlarges the image so it is important to capture the image in as accurate focus as possible because when it enlarges it can blur otherwise
