Here is a 1973-D DDR Kennedy Half i got in change at the local 7-11 this morning. When i looked at it tonight under a 7x and then a 10x i was like wow! Cant find any listing for it. Is this a new DDR find? Please any and all info on this would be great.

I magnified one of your photos…you can see it is MDD (Machine Damage Doubling).

Machine Damage Doubling is very common on our modern coinage. It is characterized by a flat, self-like, secondary image. True die doubling will show splits in the serifs of the letters.
