1984P does this reverse look doubled?

Does this look like the doubling on an 84P DDR? Not in the best shape, but it got my attention.

Viv , I have had lighting give a doubled look in this area and fool me , http://www.lincolncentforum.com/foru...light=1989+ddr , but it sure does appear to have some doubling going on !

Hit the light from a different direction and see how it looks.

Thank you John for taking a look and helping! Here is another angle on the R - AMERICA, and the E-ONE and T-CENT. I'm really trying to get a decent pic but this little Lincoln is kicking my tail!

Going to drop it in some mineral oil for the night and call it a day

Thank you enamel! How are you doing bud! LOL... I've been fooling around with this one for about 30 minutes! It's ugly for one thing and the color is weird even though my LED's make everything purple! But, it would just be nice to know if what I'm seeing is something... or just lights messing with me

That might be where the edge of the letter has a ramp instead of a sharp edge maybe from die wear then light catches it and makes it look like a split. You can probably tell best in hand with a loupe instead of a scope because you have quicker control of the angles and lighting.

Thank you Ed! Well, when I look with my loupe it looks about the same but not as detailed. What is Bob referring to on the E of One, is there like a split on the center horizontal? Also, the T CENT has separation on the top of the T and I see that. If I didn't see all the other stuff I would resort to die wear but I'm being stubborn I guess

I'm doing great Viv! Finished my last in home therapy today. Start outpatient therapy next Wed. I'm ahead of where I was last year, mainly due to all of the setbacks I had. I actually got to drive for the first time today!

That is great news enamel! Wow, already driving! So glad you are doing good and ahead of schedule!

I ran into similar looking doubling when I started searching with my scope. It is a great piece of equipment but the LED's will create something that is not there sometimes. Enamel and Roller walked me through the same coin I think. It ended up being lighting and deterioration.

Hi Viv, I've been out of the game for a while so might be a little rusty, but this looks like an optical illusion from the lighting source. I'm not seeing any doubling, but that's just me.

There is some precedent for the notching in this year. I list one on coppercoins and John Wexler lists a few. My first opinion is that this is in fact a doubled die.

Hello Rock! Very nice to see you! Thank you so much for dropping by and taking a look! Hope this means we get to see more of you this year!!!

Thank you so much Bob! I'm trying to soak off some of that crud right now and will try again with different lighting but I'm afraid I don't have what it takes on this one. Can I please send it to you?

[hasfam]

Well, that's great news on the coin attribution. Like I said, I'm a bit rusty (not that I had much skill in the first place LOL).
Yes Viv, great to see you again too. I'm hoping to stick with it this time. Since my ordination in 2014 its been non stop.
