Hello all. We found this 1909 VDB last night while CRH through a box from the bank. Upon closer inspection this appears it could be a possible DDO variety. I'm curious what the more educated here think as well as if it may be worth getting graded.

Thanks in advance!

Slight Machine Doubling. The die was over polished and reduced the fields making the devices and design weaker. But it is a desirable coin, just not a doubled die. The DDO would look like these on the doubled dies:

While the 001 looks like Machine Doubling it is not. Note the devices are wider on the date and Liberty.

On the 1102 on the date. Note the SE loop is wider in that direction.
