This is DDD, die deterioration doubling. The lettering has eroded edges, as opposed to MD, machine doubling with a flat and shelf-like shift to the letters.
To be fair, it could be a combination of both.

 

I know I thought there was quite a bit of the Doubling

 

Yes, it is considered doubling, but "worthless doubling" as it is just from a worn die. NAV but good eye, and good photos. Thanks.

 

Strike doubling. That means it ain't worth nothing.

 

Keep up the good search. Thanks for sharing.

 

Great photos, unfortunately NAV, but a keeper if you so desire. Thanks for posting.

 

Thank yall for all the good info. I will find real doubling one day!

 

When you least expect it. Lol, but that’s a lot of times how it happens.

 

Yes it’s doubled but it’s a NAV Doubling coin.

 

You gotta buy a ticket to win the lottery, you gotta look for doubling to find it.

 

Here is a diagram you can find in many threads on CT. Hope it helps!



Also, here is a link to PCGS pictures of a 1955 DD!! Notice how the numbers appear to be the same height? That's one thing I was taught to look for. Of course I learned it on CT!!!

 

A double negative???!!!

 

Back-to-back negatives, yes, and I throw myself on the mercy of the court. But it’s not worth nothing to nobody, that’s what I meant to say.

 

It looks more like md than ddd.
