The eyelid on this coin looks different. I was wondering if any of you had seen this before.

I see the die clash of the "C" in front of the forehead, but the eyelid it self seems to be doubled in some fashion. The clash didn't go that deep into the coin to affect the eye.

While the coin has taken some hits, the doubling to the eyelid doesn't look like damage--to me.
It almost appears there is some doubling to the lower eyelid too. This might be a minor DDO.
Any signs of doubling below the nose, on LIBERTY, or the feather tips?

Compare the eye to the classic DDO--the 1873 Snow-1
