Machine Doubling?

I am pretty sure this is MD but this is the only one so far that I have found that seems to be pretty heavy. Any thoughts?

Sorry...picture needs to be bigger!

 

Sure looks like it.but a larger photo would help.

 

I would call it MD, but yes a bigger picture would help.

 

That sure looks like MD, notice how it made the '1' smaller.

 

The larger photo shows it very well as MD. Nice photo work.

Several possibilities.

1) Machine doubling

2) Die deterioration doubling

3) At that point in time, it could have been a worn hub used to make the die. It's common in the late fifties and early sixties.

Thanks,

When it comes to the bust esp.

When it comes to the bust esp. the chin and neck areas Bill is perfectly correct - a type of profile doubling very common in this era.
