sorry I am not seeing the doubling. BUT that don't mean it isn't there. I tried to match up your pics to :

I don't think it is... I think I may see doubling in the "D" of "GOD" but it's not that clear. Do any of the markers match?

I thought the marker for "in" matched. Seems like its doubled backwards though so maybe just MD? aww man I got excited...

Well don't lose hope just yet. There are lots of doubled dies for the date, and it might be one of the other ones, or one of the minor ones. The letters in "GOD" look thin to me, so it could be a later die state where the die has been polished down at some point.

Or one there are many of. From what I can see this is master die doubling. A large percentage of these for all three mints are easy to find. Here is an example of what to look for:

They are doubled dies, but too common to warrant a premium.

Every time I see the notching on the "D" I do a double take, but then I see it on the next five coins and sigh...
