Yes, I do believe the edge is incuse and will look like doubling but is not.

I would agree; however, from error-ref, it states: Quote: These extra letters are much smaller and thinner than the normal letters because the apex of each raised letter on the die face is narrower than the base in vertical cross section. The letters from my example, are the same size.

Are these still called Sacagawea or Native American $1?

That was my mistake. From the Mint, they are called: Native American $1 Coin.

Unlike business strike dollars, the proof dollars were struck with the lettering on the collar die so this may be Incuse Mechanical Doubling.
