I don't think it is a doubled die.

I will try. Somebody stole my camera. I'm back to using phone. I was confident with this one as viewing angle from ear showed positive doubling. In the ear as clearly as I've never seen before. Thanks

See the line along the chin. The first image is your coin, the image on the right is a 1984 doubled die.  I may be missing something, it is different looking at a picture than it is holding the coin in your hand.

Usually the best way to tell is from the doubling of the ear lobe no? Unless this is a different variety of some sort,but usually the ear lobe sticks out like a sore thumb,

It looks like an over polished die. Note the Motto, on IN, how thin the letters are. Also LIBERTY is thinned. (sign of extreme die polishing) Also it has a bad plating issue on your coin. Spendable.

Quote: Usually the best way to tell is from the doubling of the ear lobe no? I always look at the earlobe first. It is usually obvious, but in a poor photo, depending on the lighting, it may have been there and I just couldn't see it. Edit: There are other doubled die obverses listed for 1984, other than the double ear. Compare your coin to them. http://www.coppercoins.com/diesearch.php

Something is going on here the date has activity notching with separation with other things. Coop, you don't see anything else you think just over polished. So on? Thanks for all input.

It is very difficult to see the date clearly with those photos. Can you try to get a close up of the date?
