"F" in OF and "AM" in AMERICA appear doubled, is this a known DDR... or something else?

Are the other devices affected the same way? If so it might be double struck.

That is strange. Some does look like damage to the coin. Other areas look double struck. Not sure what to think of it?

Is it possible that a section of the die was broken or weakened enough just in the affected areas so as to cause a jumping or bouncing effect when striking the coin so as to produce these localized effects?

If the die was broken, then the normal device would not be there.

On the obverse, may be some doubling on one of the stars?

If genuine, I believe this is a DDR. Too bad about the scratch. I would send this off to ANACS for authentication. Update when able!
