I don't see a doubled die. I'm going to ask the mod dudes to move your post to a more appropriate forum.

Can we get close-ups of the date and the rest of the motto? The U does look a bit like the doubling seen on WDDO-001, but it is very hard to tell without seeing more of the coin, since the doubling on this variety is pretty flat and shelf like, which would also be diagnostic of MD.

Look at the the left edges of the U in TRUST, coinfrog. It is a close match for WDDO-001 (same with the S and T). I would need to see more to verify, but this is definitely not one that should be dismissed out of hand without more pictures.

I'm not seeing a DDO on your coin. Note the date spread on these devices.

The 1935 DDO-001 is interesting, as there is also a somewhat common MD ( Machine Doubling) that occurred and looks almost exactly like the doubling. The MD is more common than the DDO and appears on a fair number of coins. Easiest way to separate them is to look at the eyelid, as the DDO has a fairly distinct doubled eyelid to the north, while the MD coins don't seem to look different here. But from the photos this appears to be the MD, not the DDO. OP is asking a really good question here, as this coin looks a lot like a DDO, but I do not believe it is.

The spread is evident on this die. Note how much taller the date is? That is your first clue that it is not Machine Doubling. Also not on your coin the first 'T' in TRUST. Note how much thinner it is on your coin, when it should be wider.
