It's hard to tell with the photos, but don't think so. If that is an Obv 1, 1a, or `1a/1 then the N's have been repunched off old 1876 Obv dies to make them full serif. As is the thread about the 1881, there was a great deal of handpunching done to clean up the dies, so it's really not a D/D in the true sense of the word, nor is it hub-doubling. What Obv is your coin?

I think it's a c1/c2 could be wrong

Yes, you have an Obv 2/1a, but is not one of the scarce 2/1's with heavy repunch doubling. It's still a nice 2/1 example that has some nice doubling. It looks like the Canada A's are repunched

So coin showed up today and it is actually the type 2 c1/c2 with doubling of the denticles between Victoria and Canada.

That's a relatively scarce one. Your initial photo doesn't really show the doubling of the denticles between Vicky and Canada.

Of course it's a keeper. They are fairly hard to find.
