The photos stink but the doubling is clear to the naked eye no need for microscope

Sorry but can't see any doubling from the pictures supplied.
Could you please take a closeup of the area you think is doubled.
Also orient your pictures properly so we are not trying to look sideways.

If you are referring the area at the top of the letter T in LIBERTY, that's a ridge caused by a deteriorating die. I see some possible evidence of the same thing on the top of the E and potentially the other letters as well.

As to your second question, grading and attribution are two different things. The overall condition of the coin is what is graded, and at PCGS that's going to set you back about $50. Other graders charge less, though.

Attribution is when they verify the presence of a variety on a coin. PCGS charges $18 additional for that, and you don't get a refund if they don't find what you think you see.

Also, PCGS only attributes certain varieties, typically those found in the Cherry Pickers Guide, so unless your coin is already recognized as a significant variety they won't attribute it.

On the obverse, I'm not detecting a DDO--looks like some Die Deterioration in-play. Eager to see a large and sharp photo of the reverse. Thanks.

Only two listed on V.V obverse listings:
DDO-001

Quote:
Description: Light spread on LIBERTY.

Very minor spread on the upper cross bar on 'L' take a look at how minor it is?
DDO-002
http://www.varietyvista.com/09b%20W...6PDDO002.htm

Quote:
Description: Strong notched serifs on LIBERTY.

http://www.varietyvista.com/09b%20W...6PDDR001.htm
DDR-001

A nice stronger DDR.

How to avoid finding Machine Doubling? Stop looking at the outside/inside
edges of devices. Look at the centers of the devices to see if they are widened.
