1969 S DDO

[Sam1966]

This coin appears to have some doubling on it especially on the date. Opinion's please?

[CoinHunter]

Sorry, but this is just machine doubling. Put simply, machine doubling is when a coin slides a little bit in the die while it was being ejected from the dies.

Here are better photos of the single numbers and shots of the lettering enlarged. The doubling on 969 is raised as you can see in the photo on the top of the 9's and on the curl of the inner 6. All the lettering is the same you can tell on the L and I in liberty real easily. If you look at the photos of the lettering enlarged instead of enlarged and then photographed you can see it better the doubling doesn't look like a dark shadow on the outer of the letters.

Nothing changes form the opinion you received from CoinHunter. This is all MD. It is about as classic as you can get, and 1969 had hundreds of thousands of MD examples.

All machine doubling.
The below is NOT, rather a DDO:
