Please help with this question. I just purchased a 1970-S Proof set and the IN GOD WE has Strong doubling all on the left side also the BERT in liberty is much bolder than the LIY. the S is Bold, also doubled slighty left. Is this something Breen may have a number for or is this the typical Proof type Mint Doubling. It is like the Mint State FS 029.
Thanks

    If the mintmark is doubled to the same degree as the motto, then you have strike doubling. The mintmark was added to the die in a completely separate operation and should not be doubled on a true doubled die.

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.

    Definitely strike doubling, sorry. Look at the bottom of the W in particular, the secondary image is flat and shelf-like and there is no notching of the serifs.
