I have tried but can not get the light and camera right at all. What pics I do have are not the greatest. I see the J being thicker on the curve along with notches and in the other pics you can see the notch in the F and M. Any verification?

Def doubled but I think it's pretty common on these. At least it is on the last two years. I've been doing a lot of shields lately and there are more DD initials than regular.

If you compare it to what they are supposed to look like they're def fatter. The DDR listings for the shield cents are mostly having to do with the initials and USA and it's just extra thickness

It does look a little bit thicker, but I won't say it a Doubled Die Reverse until it's proven.

The lines on the top of those devices are rolling zinc lines. Its funny they don't go away from the strike?

You would never believe how I created the background for the last image?

It kind of looks like a finger tip.

You are very close. It was actually fingers that were holding the coin. I made them fill the screen. Extended the image at the bottom with the canvas feature, placed several there horizontal. Used the Polar cooridinates to make the lines centered, then squared the image. Then transferred the image to the background. (and all the other things afterwards)

Great information coop. Great job with the pic and thanks for sharing. ...not know where to find out anything on the 2018 shields to see if this is anything. Might you know where I could look 2018 shields up to see if mine matches another?
