I am trying to understand why everyone (except John1) thinks this is Longacre Doubling? LD is evident on both sides of a letter but these images only show on one side of each letter. This looks more like double die or Strike Doubling. The following images I found by doing searches for specifically LD and Strike Doubling.
Here is an image of longacre doubling,

I am no expert but would like to learn from this and learn the difference so any comments are appreciated.
