Most of them aren't mine, no. Some I've bought or am thinking of buying.

I don't know, seems very "shiny", maybe it's just blurry. Some of the lettering seems almost doubled. Not sure if those are scratches on the high parts. Or it's just blurry or lustery.

There does look like there is some doubling. Better pictures would help to determine if it is die doubling, MD, or just lighting.

I just checked Variety Vista, and there is a known DDO for 1936-S. No DDR though, so that's likely MD on the reverse (or lighting). See the link here.

If it is, there would be a clear diagnostic under the feathers on the obverse. See the bottom left photo on the linked page.

lighting is a little overexposed to see the surfaces to make an accurate assessment. looks MS64 plus or minus 1
