To my untrained eye, that looks like a significant doubled die. What is it that you are using to judge it as a MD?

The secondary device's on the 5 & E look flat and shelf like IMHO. I could be wrong but that's what I see

Machine Doubling can't produce the notching effect you see..it looks like a pretty nice DD IMO.

MD looks just like that on incuse devices. The devices are raised on the die, and incuse on the coin. A larger percentage of these ATB Quarters show this.

Thanks for the help understanding this one. I had no idea that notches were standard MD fare on incuse lettering. Looked like a DDO to me, but I have seen the light.

On a dub doubled incuse devices they look reduced. (just the opposite as raised letters with machine damage)    But I'm still waiting for a DDR on the incuse devices on the ATB Quarters.

Thats' why you come come here. To fill in the blanks. Seems like on coins, everyone is still learning. New stuff is discovered all the time.
