Please excuse the photo...
I no longer have the microscope that connects to my phone and can not sign it with my comouter at the moment so the actual picture of the mint mark is a pic of my laptop screen.

looks like ejection doubling
Ejection Doubling? This a new term. Please explain.
There is a fairly common effect seen on many coins that mimic doubling. It is called “strike” or “ejection” doubling. This effect is caused when a normal die with no doubling on its design, shifts slightly as the dies come apart before the newly struck coin is ejected. In an instant, parts of the struck coin that have not cleared the recesses of the die are shifted out of normal registry causing a low, flat “doubled” area next to the coin’s relief when viewed from above. This is a mechanical form of doubling rather than a result from a defective die.
