Hi there! Long time, first time. Came across this dime the other day and wanted to see what y'all's thoughts on it might be. The chin caught my eye initially and had me searching for any documented 2024 dime DDOs. That turned up nothing, but casting a wider net led me to a reading some pretty interesting articles about the sticky wicket that was (is?) FDR and his hot, hot lips.. lol Using an overlay posted by the magnanimous COOP, I felt pretty confident in calling the coin a die clash, though it does have some doubling to it that I'm not sure if it's MD or not. I'd be grateful for insights & opinins! Thx

I'm only seeing Machines Doubling. Looks normal.

I agree, MD and contact marks from another coin's reeding

 to CCF. I see heavy Reed Marks on the side of the head and Ear. Machine Doubling on the obverse devices of Liberty and the forehead. But I don't think that you have a clash in the area you are pointing out. These areas are incuse on the die and are rarely impacted by the opposing die. Die clashes will usually present themselves on the low areas of the die, (the flat fields).

 In my opinion, this is definitely worth sending in. It does not look like doubleddies.com (Wexler), is taking submissions on dime varieties right now but maybe reach out to VV (Variety Vista) to see if they are taking submissions. VV link. http://varietyvista.com/index.htm

I'm with Makescents. The area in front of the chin isn't flat, as MD might be.

If you lok closely at each picture they are all show different details and marking , so consider the fact that lighting plays a big roll in how we see the details in different angles and different lighting direction.

Woah! This looks to be a pretty significant doubled die. I would give this the "Best Of" designation with little hesitation.
Super cool find!

Well, I was wrong.  Congratulations on the new unlisted DDO find!    I didn't even see it until now.

Strange that the doubling seems to affect the ear and lips only but that is a nice looking DDO. I look forward to seeing the listing photos on this one. Great find!
