Best pic I could get. It almost looks like a triple MM. Thoughts?

From what I can see the east side of the are below the mint mark has the same directional mark as the mint mark. From what I can see it appears to be Machine Doubling?

Thanks Coop, that was my initial thought as well. Then I noticed three distinct faces on both the trailing edge and on the inner trailing edge. MD should only be able to account for one other face/surface? Or could it account for multiple images rather than just the original and the second? Again thanks!

Multiple light sources also distract as well I try to keep my images to one light source. I use anthing to block the unwanted light source. Facial tissue and tape. A curtain of foam. Typing paper. Anthing to block the unwanted light. Or at times, shut off a light to get rid of an un wanted light source.

You have to look at the thickness of the device in this case. If it looks like normal width at the field, but is chopped into three parts, then it has to be Machine Doubling.

I'm pretty sure that's what this is, but ut is difficult to tell without better images.
