First, the term is "doubled die".
Second, it looks like mechanical doubling to me.
Is there a known DD for that year/mm? If so, did it match exactly?
Your friend threw some money away. He can consider it tuition.
Mechanical/machine doubling.
IMHO this is a 1945d dime doubled die- from the back corner of my random box

NGC is not good enough?
I'm pretty sure that NGC does have some expertise on such things.
Have your friend try PCGS and ANACS.
Agreed on all counts
Yep... I'd say your friend wasted his money. IMO definitely mechanical doubling. Consider it 'tuition' cost....
Variety Vista lists a DDO-001 1945 D but it looks nothing like the OP's. Not listed in CoinFacts so may be a minor variety.

Classic machine doubling. Go here http://www.varietyvista.com/ to verify nearly all doubled dies.
Pull out a pretty & scarce actual 45-d dime that is a major doubled die and get nothing. Tough crowd

It's a waste of time and money. None of the services will slab something of an unlisted variety. 1st you'd have to get it listed as a variety.
[Note: Looks like Machine Doubling, in this case.]
That is machine doubling combined with some die erosion.... Cheers, RickO
Nice coin !
Cool dime, Crypto; doubling on the 9 looks like rattlesnake fangs!
