I had Ken Potter look at this thread and he said he thought it was a possible doubled die. I would think he would have chimed in with MD if it were as obvious to him. Not arguing with anyone, I respect the opinions of a lot of you who have responded, as well as Ken's. I'm just saying I'm not sure what to think.
I was originally leaning toward MD, but with mixed responses coupled with the fact that I can't seem to get a pic that does everyone justice, I just don't know what to do with it.
I guess I'll wait until May and send it to Ken, which is when he expects to be back in the saddle.

What I see from left to right is Machine Doubling. But from south to north it appears you may have a second eyelid. That would be consistent with a doubled die. While it is possible to have Machine Doubling in two or even three different directions on a coin, the second eyelid doesn't look like Machine Doubling. It's possible that you have a combination of Machine Doubling and a bona fide doubled die. But any secure determination would require a personal examination. Error coin writer and researcher.

Could you tell me how to go about getting it to you? Or e-mail me a link or details? I couldn't find any info on the website on how to submit.

If I could just get someone to tell me where and how to send it!
I've asked this multiple times with no response.

Thank you xshift! I looked all over CONECA's website and couldn't find anything.
Anyway, e-mails fired, I'll keep you posted!

Well, finish your popcorn and let this thread die. Here is the response I got from James Wiles:
"The east-west is MDD and the North is part of the normal design. No need to pay to have this attributed.
Thanks,
James Wiles"
Oh well, the search continues.
