Here's a couple pica of the other side. Mayb both sides are MD or DD    There is definitely a lot g doubling some looks like MD to me others look like DD. And then just like half a dozen or more die chips.if no doubling this is another good Die Deterioration example lol. Sorry again for photo quality it's hit or miss unless I take like 10 pictures quickly to get 1 good one lol.

Looks to me like there is some damage in the hair caused by the reeded edge of another coin, PMD. Then I see what does look like some potential die chips on the forehead and eyebrow. I've seen numerous Roosevelts of this time period exhibit die chips on the brow and facial areas. Nothing special here in my opinion. I definitely don't see any true doubling either.

@Bumpkin, I'm pretty sure I see DD and alot of die chips, the devices are widened but I can't get a clean enough shot. Is it possible to have a DD coin with MD? Wish I had a microscope now but I'll put it aside for further inspection, there is no DD reported for this year and denomination that I can find. But I can't for certain say there is no DD on here. Though the die chips are enough for me to keep. They are on both sides, I know they don't add value but I enjoy the look of this coin for the DD examples iv been keeping. There is doubling in alot of the images I posted, and to me some look MD which iv posted plenty of, but some other areas look like possible DD to me. It's kind of all over in different spots. If you look closely at each photo you can see what I'm talking about. I'd say very unlikely I would find the first DD of any coin but definitely doubling in many spots of one kind or another. Mayb it's Hub doubling, or DDD. I'll try and get some better images with my app but what I can post in the photos is about 1/3 quality of what I can actually see lol.the app works fairly well, but taking a picture with it is very hard

The marks on the head are reed damage, not die chips.

I can clearly see the reeding hits the coin has taken, there is several die chips all over Roosevelt's face. But I'm more curious about the doubling I see. @ coop, I mentioned that I was aware of the damage and many die chips, I'm aware of strike damage when I see it.
On a further not I'm bad with American presidents lol

Some of the doubling as observed on LIBERTY is Machine Doubling. And a few chips and post mint damage. No premium, sorry.

I still like it, there is at least 6-7 die chips I can count in both sides and they are alot more apparent the my other example with die chips in a lot if the letters. I also find it much easier to see these errors in American coins in general the Canadian. The Die Deterioration u see on Canadian coins is completely different then American coins. A cool die chip piece for me even if no value. Once I get a USB microscope I'll be able to get a better look at my coins and get better pics.

I know very little about doubles dies, let alone there specific locations on a coin lol. I thought it could happen anywhere on a coin. My knowledge on American coins is very limited, something I still need to do more research on. So the images you posted are where I should be looking for doubled dies on mines after 1999?

On the single squeeze dies they are closer the the center of the designs.

Obverses are pretty much duds. Here is probably the only one that is a DDO: But looking at the listings on the site, will give a better idea as to what to look for on the post 1999 coins. Look there first and save your eyes a lot more. We check a map before going any where, why not check references first, then search. Turn the light and then you can see the maps better.

I don't mind spending time looking at coins that are not listed, who knows maybe one day I'll discover an error or variety on a year that's not listed.
