There is also the possibility that the ridged pattern was caused when the edge lettering was applied.

Not doubling, thats the way the design of the font is.

I think maybe it's showing the shear marks of being cut from the sheet metal. This would be my guess. |

No, you are thinking of the serifs on a Doubled Die.
Those serifs are part of the design. Two different things.

To me, it looks more like circular wrapping machine scrapes and maybe some die warping due to age. But it could very well be doubling, too. The Wexler guys would know.
