Generally speaking on 2012 Laser Mark Loonie Obverse the doubling is rampant.

However the doubling is typically much cleaner than shown in the picture and typically I have found that if the "SB" has doubling then there are other elements like the bust, the necklace, the date or the letters that also have doubling.

The photo does show doubling and if I am not mistaken you can see doubling at the bottom left corner of the bust in the picture and also on the back of the neck. It seems like Strike Doubling if the movement of the die relative to the coin happening to the right as seen facing the obverse.

Good pictures. As an aside what do you use to capture the images

I would say so. It would be interesting to check with some of the US counterparts who have established a system to verify die varieties.

You have been so prolific in finding these things that you might want to consider getting into it.

And you do that all with a loupe and blackberry.

Awesome
