The lettering in "In God..." appears to be "pulled up and to the left" giving it a 3d effect. Is this a sticky die? I've not seen this before. I see it to some extent in "Liberty as well".
Thanks.

The die that struck your coin was in a very late die state, and the doubling you see is due to the Die Deterioration and Machine Doubling combined.

This is on the PCGS forum. Someone had it graded probably thinking it was a DDO, Not. Machine Doubling.
