I really want you to "get it" and you will, it's not an easy thing to learn and learn well.I think the reason Potter's coin looked that way to you is because the photo was taken straight on top looking directly down on it.  To learn true die doubling you must learn to turn the coin, sometimes radically to get the light in on it and see "what your supposed to see".It can be very hard to tell some.Unlike your coin true doubled dies will not be directly on top of the coin.  They will be juxtopositioned from them.  In other words adjacent to be but slightly adjar from, (a letter or number not only on top but beside the primary, another image there.These are my own ways of explaining it and are not official.  But look at your coin again, is the secondary image you see a part of the original or truly another seperate image??  That's the key sort of like if you were somehow able to remove the machine doubling and nothing else on your coin would you still have a complete image of the letter?  In other words your doubling is an extension of the primary and not a new and seperate device.[/QUOTE]
