    Sorry, but the photos are not sufficient for me to make any determination. Need clearer and closer.

      What areas do you think you are seeing the DDO?

        Nice looking coin, but I see no signs of doubling.

            Thanks for re-taking the pics. I'm afraid I do not see any evidence of a DDO. Cliff asked if you could tell us exactly what and where you are seeing the doubling. We could still use that info. Thanks!

                I think what is on the 7s horizontals is MD.
                Sort of a shelf formed there.

                  Thanks for the followup images and description but I have to agree with Bob and Ed.
                  Nickels and clad frustrate me no end because of the MD all the time.

                    yes I think that is also mechanical doubling on the 7's but if you look at this picture I see Dublin on just about everything it's Southeast Dubling20190413_204514.jpg

                      I see exactly what you are talking about. However, you made a statement previously that confirms this may all be issues with the lighting...especially on this coin. Any time you see doubling in one direction, but turn the coin and the doubling seems to disappear, then it is most likely a lighting issue. In addition, the strength of the doubling would include some notching which is not visible. Very sorry, but this is not a doubled die.

                        I understand what you're saying must be Bob and after reading what you told me I took a better look at my coin and I C notching on all letters in God we trust I have a picture here hopefully you can see it as well all the notches are on the top right corner of the lettersScreenshot_20190416-085704_Photos.jpg

                          I think I can finally see what you are seeing. If it is indeed the top right of the letters, then that appears to be mechanical doubling. I can see it on just about all letters, but more noticeable on the OD of GOD and most letters on TRUST. I can also see some separation on the right side of the letters, and all of this looks like mechanical doubling where portions of the letter are 'shelf-like' and subtract from the true thickness of all the letters. I admire your tenacity, but this is not a hub DDO.

                            It does appear to be md. The doctor is in!
