That one always looks like Machine Doubling, until you realize that the devices are enlarged.

I bought this at a huge estate sale with a coin collection attached, and when I got there, most of the coins were already bought, except for a few. Strangely this was 1 of only 2 Lincoln's left, the other was another 09-VDB in similar shape. So I bought both 09's for 4 dollars each, thinking one might be the DDO, and confirmed one when I got back home.
