I don't know if this was the camera doubling or what. I've been working on this coin intermittently all day, trying to get a picture of that notch in different modes. What do you guys think? Oh and this is uncirculated from local coin shop, out of the 1959-1970 series in sealed plastic wrapping.
Rest in Peace

I can see why...

I see something but I sort of think it's die wear.

I agree with the die wear on the right side of the devices. There looks like very slight amount of machine damage. I would to see the eye area and the LIBERTY to see if there is minor hub doubling. But so far nothing major.
Two listed on coppercoins:

The last digit is too small to be this die number. But more images might be more interesting on the EPU, eye and LIBERTY might show me something else?

Yeah I checked out coppercoins and wexlers. Couldn't find anything. I knew the dies were worn out. Was taking a picture of the inside of the 9 withe the die chip. And what looks like tripling, of probably Machine Doubling? Then I saw the 5, and well, like I said, L all day long. Thought I would bring in the pro's, burned out on this coin today. Haha

I'm not sure what I should be seeing on them? The image areas I was asking for was on the obverse?

Checking back I did mention the EPU

Quote:

Make that the motto. (Why I typed EPU, I don't know?)
But back to the reason for the extra images on LIBERTY, the hub doubling is not there. The eye shows not a doubled eyelid. The reason I asked for that in case the 19 looking larger might be explained by that. The nose looks a bit funny with the line on it? But image the "TRU" on TRUST might show something if there is anything there on your coin.
