1966 Jefferson nickel errors

What type of error is this if it is not doubling or doubled not sure of the correct term. Found this on a few of my 1966 nickel roll marked errors. Also would there be a premium on it?

    MD = mechanical doubling, aka: ejection doubling.

    A very very common form of doubling on all denominations,
    and part of the minting process. Not an error, and no premium
    for it.
