Never seen a triple strike before. Does this look like one to you?

    Nice obverse triple strike. Looks like the coin got moved on the scanner on the reverse.

    I think it is OK, though the pictures are rotten. The reverse has a jog in it where the coin moved during the scan.

    Look at the denticles at the top of the obverse. See how the denticles overlap themselves? I have seen this before on a double struck coin. Note also the N of UNITED.

    How about another set of pictures. Turn the coin 90 degrees this time just to get some different lighting.
