  Shelf/Machine doubling would get my vote.

  Not really looking for much these days but if I were, it might be a toner.

  Perhaps a worn/abraded die. Does not look like a doubled die.

  Die bounce added to a worn die.

  Could be die erosion. Hard to tell from the image but not a DDO.

  Is there some way to turn down the brightness of the pic? It's hard to see what is really going on.

  Does not look like DD, brightness needs to be muted a bit though.... Cheers, RickO
