Here's one I found recently. The date, 25 cents are doubling. Picture is not the best but give a bit an Idea. Coin is around EF.

Thanks

Impossible to tell from those photos. The light source direction and angle are not ideal.

From what I see with the word "cents", definitely a Double Die Reverse.

Not only did I not know about this examples existence, this is one of the nicest Doubled Die Reverse examples I have seen!

Very obvious doubling in "25 Cents" with nice separation from the first and second hubbing impressions on the working die.
Finding and discovering modern Canadian doubled die varieties since 2018.
