As title says I zoomed in some parts to help. The last one I believe is a double ear not by lobe but on outter edge. What do you think?

The doubled ear is very prominent:

The other indicator is the "double chin"

Ok got it on ear. More prominent. What about the dd on the year and other wording? Is that not considered double die marks?
Rest in Peace

Esteban, the "Ghosting" is an effect of worn dies and just basic high speed machining. Some say heat has something to do with this, along with machine vibration, kinda like an out of balanced tire. Most of us are in the camp for Die Deterioration.

Try this site for Doubled dies(DDO,DDR,RPM)http://www.coppercoins.com/advsearch.php

or this one:http://doubleddie.com/
