I have this 83 P Quarter and couldn’t find any mention of DDO’s, so I’m totally assuming that I don’t have a DDO, lol (SHOCKER!!)! But can anyone tell me what I’m seeing with Washington’s eyes and lip/chin area? Is this machine doubling? Thanks in advance!
I will try to get a few better pics! I only noticed it bc I was looking with my microscope! Maybe I can just put a shot from that?!!
First, "flat and shelf-like" is usually indicative of machine doubling which is worthless. What I was trying to say is that it just might be true hub doubling. I would rather see better photos that don't require super close-ups from one of those USB digital microscopes because they tend to skew the results.
Okay!! I will try my best! Lol! Thanks for the advice as well!! I’m a HORRIBLE photographer! I will post some more pics within the next hour!! Stay tuned........!
