This one caught my eye... it does not have the characteristic shelf-like doubling, more like a beveled edge.

Surely that is a partial double strike---hence the bevelled edge. I think MD is out because of the physical limits to the size of shelves---shelves are cause by excess metal flow ?
Would a double strike account for the lack of detail on the second stroke ?

I don't think it is a double strike. Only the Queen is doubled, the legend and beads are not....

Hi

Fairly common default for 1 ¢ 1998 We find this fault before and behind the face.
