Machine Doubling is seen on the date area and 'Y' on Liberty. The 'L' is showing extreme die wear. Note how it is touching the rim on that area. Not a doubled die. When looking for doubled dies, don't look at the edges of devices. On doubled die, the spread is seen on the centers of the devices. On the outside edges of devices you will find Machine Doubling and extreme die wear. The spread on the DDO for that year is on the Philly cent and seen as doubled devices on the Liberty and the Motto:
Note the devices are enlarged in size. On your coin the devices are reduced with Machine Doubling on the areas I noticed this on your coin. The die that struck your coin was normal, but the devices were damaged by the machine post strike. (machine was loose altering the devices on your coin) A doubled die is caused by the doubling on the die. You can have Machine Doubling on a doubled die, but Machine Doubling doesn't make a doubled die. On a doubled die can strike a doubled die coin. Hub doubling on the die = doubled die. Machine Doubling is caused post strike. So it is not a doubled die. Hope this helps?
