    It looks like a normal proof to me,but please post proper pictures no side etc.Just put the device right above the coin at no angles for the obverse and reverse.

    I see split plate doubling aka worthless zinc rot and what looks like a die chip in the O.

    That explains why its raised inside the letters as well? Just trying to educate myself.

    Aside from the split plating at the top, yes, this would be my best observation as to what appears to be bubbling inside & between the lettering.
