Hello, during a current CRH adventure, I picked up $220 in CW rolls of half dollars, I found 7 1976D Bicentennial Kennedy Half Dollars. During the examination of the coins I noticed dubling in Liberty, IN GOD WE TRUST, and the Date. I attempted to locate this Error on Varity Vista and the photos there do not completely match up. I also found a 1972D and a 1977D with the same type of doubling. I believe I I'm seeing split serifs like on other DDO"s. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Minor master die doubling is common on Kennedy halves. The first step is to compare it to other coins of the same date. If they all have the doubling, it's master die doubling.
From the 1976-D 50c plate coin on CoinFacts:
First, a Doubled Die is a variety, not an error.
It does appear like you may have a DD but not all minor DD’s are listed.
Only DD’s listed on Variety Vista can be certified.
