What error is on UNITED? MD or something else?
The reverse pic makes it look like all letters are like that but it's just UNITED

Shelf-like doubling that serves to reduce the width of the design elements = MD.

Note the areas pointed out. Mechanical/machine/strike doubling (your coin) on the left.

MD doesn't add to it, it's part of it. DD It makes the letter appear bigger and offset.
