After reading an article I now know that what I was calling doubling is in fact just split plating

I don't see split platting here.
But you have the advantage of having coin in hand.
But either way.. nice WAM find.


EDIT: It is good that you post full pictures of the obverse and reverse of the coin.
When identifying a possible error or variety, it is good practice to post a close up picture so others may review it. Plus we do like pictures here

Nice find! Wide AM's are getting much scarer.
