Yes this looks like a DDO to me too—the pics aren't great, but several of the letters are thicker (e.g. the T of TRUST). That doesn't happen with MD.

Thanks for the picture idea. I have a camera and I was about to go break that out just for this but it seems way easier. I'll make sure I try some of these tricks the next time! Totally appreciate it!

Yep, first glance without looking at others replies, I too thought DDO something; I know Machine Doubling also exists in this date obverse, but it didn't quite look like it to me. I even think it is possible to have DDO and Machine Doubling at the same time on the obverse.

I agree that it's a DDO and the images need work.

I saw the same thing as Spence with the verticals being significantly thicker than the tops on the T's of TRUST. Blurry couldn't hide that thickness. LOL

It is a DDO. Newbielearning, now check all three reference sites and find the attribution number for it so you can label it correctly and train your eyes to see what a true doubled die looks like.

I think this next part is the step I am sad to say I do not know much about. Can you give me some insight on labeling it and the reference sites you are referring to?

Compair 003 to 008 in this link. Just off the doubling at WE, I'm leaning towards 003 from these pics
Great find !

Look for a coin that matches your coins die markers.
