Just working on taking better pictures so since im practicing I might as well show off some other oddity coins. See if I can learn at the same time.

I assume its a Machine Doubling due to the shelf look to it. BUT before I assume it I might as well ask you guys.

It has the appearance of MD; the giveaway is that the same type, direction and degree of doubling is also present on the Mintmark (MM). The MM was added after the die was made and should not have the same type of doubling. Nice photos BTW.
