Looking at V.V they show only one DDO:
http://www.varietyvista.com/12%20Ke...4PDDO001.htm
1-O-II-C+VI Class 6

Quote:
Description: Medium spread on LIBERTY


Wexler only show one also, (the same one)

Quote:
1984-P 50¢ WDDO-001 "Best Of" Variety
Description: A strong Class VI spread towards the center shows on IGWT, LIBERTY, the upper hair details, and slightly on the date.

But I feel this is not a DDO. I feel it is Machine Doubling on images #4 & #5. Note the affected areas are on the outsides of the devices. Nothing is enlarged like there is on the DDO-001 and WDDO-001 examples. So I'm in the not a DDO camp.

Note the spread made the center bar on the 'E' taller shortening the area above the cross bar.

I agree with coop, not a DDO. The doubling in your photos show MDD (Machine Damage Doubling), note the MDD on the R of LIBERTY and the N of IN.

I would like to see photos from another angle the E,R,T,and Y. Yes there is Machine Doubling but that doesn't rule out doubling.

Ok that is weird. The letter R in LIBERTY really looks like the tip is split in your first pic, but the effect is much less obvious in your follow-up pics.

I agree that it is Mechanical Doubling, not a true DDO.
