When you are learning this business, that's the kind of coin that makes your day and then breaks it.

Third pic down is the only one that looks like possible notching but the pic is not very good.

I see what you're seeing. Some pictures make it look like MD, some look like a DDR, and some look like both. I'd keep it for the time being, maybe take some better pics or learn the difference between MD and DD.

I think the devices if they are hub doubled, should show some thickness in that area. I'm not seeing that on this coin. The UNITED devices may have been altered during ejection of the coin and thus are machine damaged. ( Machine Doubling)

There's notching on the s I think. I'm using an iPad wit a lens stickered on the iPad lens. I pretty sure it has auto focus so it's hard and plus I don't know how to use light angles

Try the photography section, Olesdewit. You should be able to pick up some good tips there. Good pics are important to you here.
