Here is a link to a 1963 Proof Roosie listed on Heritage. I don't see the doubling? Where I am supposed to be looking?
Thanks for the help.

If you zoom in alot, you can see that the word Liberty is doubled.
The "3" looks like it has some doubling as well.

It is a doubled reverse so don't look for it on the obverse.
The pickup point is "UNITED" with a clockwise rotation. Look closely on the inside left of each letter on united, the left of EPU, and the leaves. The Cherry pickers guide shows 4 different varities.

I need to get an up to date Cherry Pickers for the new varieties.

There are now 4 doubled die reverses for this date in the Cherrypickers Guide. So which one is this? Who knows? The valuable one is FS17.5 - the rest are worth just a fraction.
PCGS should have at least provided which one it is like the other TPG's tend to do.
In any event, others have mentioned that the doubling is not visible to the naked eye. So you will not likely be able to see anything from the Heritage pics. It would have been nice if Heritage would have noted which DDR this coin is - but they probably don't have a CPG handy.
