for some reason it does look to me more like a die shift just because the doubling is a lot cleaner and uniformed

Very nice find! Are these doubling coins worth more than face value?

Not something I collect, but that is a great example! Clearly obvious tripling.

I'm envious of you!

Old fogey joke alert.

Cutie: "Why, you silly boy, I wouldn't know. I've never kippled.

If you go by some of the characteristics of " Machine Doubling" v/s "die doubling" that are explained in detail at many of the US sites on die doubling then:

The letters seem to be genuine die doubling and the numbers seem to be Machine Doubling.

Are these from the same coin?

Excellent explanation and examples can be found here:

I wish someone in Canada would start something like that
