Could you take some pics of the date and also try to take pics straight down at the coin instead of at an angle??

Not seeing the common distortion extra thickness nor any notching. Might be MD.

Chris,
The letters of LIBERTY were pushed westward the moment the striking die hit the planchet. This would happen with loose machinery. It created the appearance of wider devices. The letters in the motto look that way due to the ejection of the planchet when at times those devices are also pushed slightly and some the the metal scrunches up northward. Both are under the umbrella of MD, machine doubling.
