    Yup, looks like mechanical doubling to my eyes.

    Looks like that die was carved after a liquid lunch!

    Does that give the coin any premium?

    Pilgrims have a ton of Master Die doubling evident on most pieces.
    No premium to my understanding as this is very common.

    There are a lot of abraded areas from the dies having been polished, some of which looks a bit like doubling but is not. However, some areas do look like they could be doubled, and someone said in an earlier post that there is a lot of master die doubling on Pilgrims-I wouldn't know about that, but I wouldn't doubt that's true.
