Looks like doubling to me! But I just had eye surgery a couple of years back!

Based on the minor varieties listed on this web page there was a fair bit of doubling going on for that particular coin. Click the links to bring up sample pictures to compare to your coin.

Sorry, not really. Coin looks to be in good shape; so for MS60 list price would be $0.65 and for MS64 would be $12.00. The doubling may add a couple of bucks to that if you find an interested collector. I like to keep these for interest when I come across them but I don't actively seek them out unless they're listed as a major variety such as the 1958 double date or the 1962 double date you'll see listed on the parent page to the one I gave you. http://www.coinsandcanada.com/coins...ts-1953-2012 My 2 cents worth! :-)
