Looks like Strike Doubling to me, but this is not my series.

Thank you! I think it's my new favorite individual coin, and the FE's are my favorite type (I think). Just wish they were produced for a longer period.

As for grade, see here: http://goccf.com/t/290451

Reveal in 24.

I'll say EF-45, but might make AU-50. Scratches in right obverse field are troubling, at least to me.

I believe it is a Machine Doubling considering the doubling seen on the Claw Tip, Tail and Wing and the date are on the same direction!

AU55 indeed. Very nice. I'm a flying eagle fanatic, love the clashed coins!

The wing and tail definitely look like Machine Doubling. The doubling on the date however is interesting. Looks more like something you would see from a double strike,

Should I leave it the way it is, or would there be a benefit to resubmission?

From reading reviews of TPG companies, PCGS is supposed to be the leader. I'm guessing if they didn't grade it as a DDO and you paid the fee for variety/attribution grading, then I think it would be a waste of money to submit it to NGC. IMO

I would just leave it in the PCGS slab.

Nice flying eagle!

IMHO, PCGS overgraded this coin by at least 5 points. Consequently, I'd be pleased with that gift and not resubmit it.
