2004 -D Texas New DDO?

If the R is the same height of the coin all around how would that be MD? There's no step like features to that R at all the bottom of the R curves slightly upwards suggesting there was some grease in the letters decreasing the height of the devices as a whole

This is MD?

So what would these be?

Notching can be seen on top left corner and bottom right corner of the Rs

This was an area I avoided showing but it seems like comparisons on the same coin may be necessary due to my cameras and lighting.... this is an R in AMERICA it is on the exact same coin this is how these phenomenon will look for reference.

I didnt really want to point out or talk about things I'm not 100% on so I didn't talk about LIBERTY on purpose but if I had to guess this would be my take that area


Ok so with all that if LIBERTY is MD that still looks like some pretty fat lettering to begin with. I'm comparing this coin to other Texas examples in hand and with PCGS photos of Denver mint examples and the R is going to be the strongest pick up point. Even on the coin itself this distance changes in the R based on location of the coin

The last two photos were taken at the same time under the same magnification and cropped to the same size why is there a huge variation in size design detail on the same coin?

If you had a doubled die you should be looking at features on the interior of your coin, not the exterior. I think you have grease issues along with circulation flattening and Machine Doubling. Also, with the overall photos you presented, please crop them down to the edges of your coin. This will help make your images larger and have less wasted space.

Alright I know my photos suck haha but check the full coin obverse image again closely, at the top of his ear nestled up against that spaghetti mess is a nice lil something extra.. its just kinda all around there mixed in there and a mess to differentiate what's supposed to be there and what isn't but there's definitely some weird stuff up in that little section...

Looks like a Struck Through Grease error. (The filing of the die to block out 2/3 of the design, makes the wider part of the devices look larger) The alteration on the single device looks like damage to the coin. The Liberty looks like Machine Doubling on the tops/bottoms on the affected devices. On AMERICA I see DDD also confusing matters. But not a DDO. Why? Because the DDO's are confined to the earlobe and Motto areas. Other areas are affected by other issues, not a doubled die.
