To the Community.

The doubling on the devices are MD ( Machine Doubling) where it looks flat and shelf like and the devices have not enlarged in size.

If that is your cent,looks like a DDO. Start a new thread for each coin you are questioning.

WDDO-003 also shows Strike Doubling. (Same as Machine Doubling, but on proof coins they are struck more than once) Images from the Wexler site) But what you are missing on the Wexler site is the spread that is present. Looking at the 'L' you are seeing the MD on the 'L' top and bottom. but look on the horizontal on the 'L'? The top of the horizontal is showing the spread.
On the second image, you can see the same thing. The spread is on the top of the bottom horizontal.
Third image shows the spread on the left side of the devices. Machine Doubling is present, the spread is what is the doubled die area. Also note the devices are enlarged.
Note the quote from the description:

Quote:

1962 25¢ Pr WDDO-003 "Best Of" Variety
Description: A strong spread towards the center shows on IGWT, LIBERTY, the date, the designer's initials, and the bottom of the ribbon.

Don't forget to look for the spread, not the MD next to devices. What shows the devices enlarged? MD or hub doubling?
