Not a double strike. As John1 pointed out, it is DDD. |

 DDD is Die Deterioration Doubling. It's found on coins struck with dies that should have been retired. The doubled image is always pushing away from the device towards the rim. The reason it doesn't add value is that it's seen on hundreds of thousands of coins, because the mints try to get every possible strike out of each pair of dies.

Die wear on the reverse. This is not a single squeeze die issue.  The devices are starting to move towards the rim. On LIBERTY this is Machine Doubling pushing towards the west. also note the devices on Liberty are reduced in size, so that tells me that the obverse die was over polished. (probably to cover over a previous clash marks. On the 'CA' on America, this is die wear. If it were hub doubling, then the devices would be enlarged. There are not. They could also show spread that is not flat like MD leaves:       |
