How common is Strike Doubling or Machine Doubling on Silver Eagles?

Would anyone mind checking out this 1993 I have photographed? I see it most notable on the date, the far 3 left rays and the I in Liberty. (It is also on the BERTY letters, only not that visible in the photos).

I have several more of this date, but none look like this one.

Is there anyway to get a close up example of the doubling? Maybe use a loupe in front of the camera lens.

Strike Doubling and other forms of Machine Doubling is not highly common on eagle coins because more care is taken in striking them - BUT - Machine Doubling is Machine Doubling, and is not collected by most people, resulting in no premium value.

you might be able to get some premium on ebay since Machine Doubling isn't to common on silver eagles, people are willing to bid on anything there
