I'm on the fence about this one, some toning on this coin makes it harder to see a possible "fork-tail". The Images are the best I could do. Please post your thoughts about this. Thank you all in advance.

    I'm not familiar with the variety, but what I see sure looks like machine/mechanical/strike doubling to me.

    If I would have to flip a coin, I would say no. With the toning/shadows on your images combined with the bad shadows in the CPG, it really makes it tough to decide. Maybe DIMEMAN will chime in here with his 10 cents on the matter since he owns the PCGS Top Pop in MS66.

    Flat and shelflike doubling. AKA classic machine doubling.

    Sorry, but this is not the 101 DDO.
