That full jar would be useful in steadying a phone's camera when taking pictures of a coin. Maybe a little tall, but relatively heavy to steady...
As with others, several over the years...in rolls and received in change. It happens with regularity, so if you CRH...expect it to happen....
You know...good enough to get you to work and back...but picking up a date was awkward.
I would pass. I would wait for a better specimen with far less going on...just too busy for me.
Not typically thought of as an error...but the effect is caused by die wear. As the die ages, different events and cleanings will occur....

Hi Keith - how are you taking the photos? You should be able to take qualifying photos using a camera on a cellphone. You need to steady the...
It looks like DDO with MD. The MD messes up the eye a bit, but clear doubling on the letters. I have a bunch of these coins...perhaps almost a...
A DD coin could also be affected by MD. Maybe two things going on here. Can we get the full obverse?
With hand placement, a little greasefill, lighter strike....maybe one got past the three reviewers. A little unlikely, but I was thinking it was...
