I picked up this proof set just for the Franklin half. Shows some doubling in LIBERTY, 1960, and IN GOD WE TRUST. Would like some opinions.

I am not seeing any doubling. Could it be rhe reflection that is making it look that way to you?

I guess the reflection isn't doing the coin any justice. By the naked eye, I can see doubling on the N edges of the lettering in WE and LIBERTY, especially on the Y in LIBERTY and here is a different T in TRUST.

You are looking too close. Even the slightest tweak could be seen at that range. While it makes it look nice, the magnification is way to strong. Show me 3-5 images of the coin in one area and we will see if it is seen then. The 'Y' looked the most interesting, but if that is all there is going on, then it would be minor. You know when have something if you can see it a 10X.

If it is too minor, it may never be listed.
