Just found this a couple weeks ago. Thought it was close to dime with same date posted as a clashed die by Heavy Metal. Newbie here, so just know I'm trying if I don't get things right.
No.. Mechanical Doubling is considered worthless doubling. It doesn't even have anything to do with a true Doubled Die. About 95% of coins posted on CoinTalk are mostly Mechanical Doubling or Die Deterioration Doubling.. All worthless. It is really hard to find true Doubled Die varieties! Here..

That's what I had thought before I came on this site to look for a 2016 1oz gold Winged Liberty. Then I saw all the postings and looked at a few coins more closely and saw some differences. I should have known I wasn't that lucky. Duh! I'll do some more reading about error coins before I clutter up a cool site for both information and education. Good thing I didn't lend my sister that money.
We’re always looking for unusual coins. If you find something you have a question about it won’t hurt to share it. Stick around just for fun
