A little Die ware and Lighting issues Casting a glare making it look slightly Doubled when you get that close to a coin. Could you get some new pics not so close? I get the same on shiny coins.
Could you take pictures of full coin with less glare possibly. I see what you are talking about. I'm tempted to say MD but a clear pic would confirm or deny my conclusion
I agree it is Machine Doubling. What you are seeing is a reduction of the normal sized devices, caused by the machine after the strike. On a doubled die the devices are enlarged (doubled) on the die, thus the devices are called a doubled die, because they are doubled on the die:
