Some Peace dollars with doubling. VAM or machine doubling?

Found these at a small local show for a little above melt. Could someone please tell me whether they are VAM's or is it just machine doubling? Thank you very much. My best guess is that it is machine doubling. The images are by Bob Campbell and he did an excellent job.

See date and neck.

    From the examples in the link, DDD looks more "melty" and soft. I suck at this but I would guess either machine or actual DD on these examples, I still cant tell those 2 apart.
  • I think its machine doubling
