I will say this about the obverse strike.
The two strike impressions directly above the hair line which definitely follow the hair line of the third and final strike are no way caused by die degradation. Also the obverse side is concave like it was struck more than once or twice. Only die pressure could do that and still leave a clean center device strike.
Dear N-6503
Given the fact that I've had four coin dealers both local and at coin shows, including PAN agree that there is definitely doubling on both obverse and reverse when viewed through a loop. In the microscope there is a third strike which distorts portions of the outer details. You may be right that die damage could simultaneously account for portions of its appearance. I'll try to post some close up detailed photos.
. Thanks for your input. I may just submit it as a DDO/DDR for grading and let them sort it out.Last edited by jcuve; 06-13-2021, 02:13 PM.

2015 P Roosevelt dime Error
As I stated in my post as a new member, I had some wild coin finds. Well, here is the first of them. A 2015 P Roosevelt dime, I believe one of a kind mint error. Through all my research of Wexler's die and mint error classifications and several dealer opinions at shows, I've yet to settle on a particular error classification for this dime.
My first inclination in my research was a Late Stage die cap TDO, and DDR, incused, Error Ref.Part VI. As I researched further, I find myself leaning more toward a Triple Stutter Strike with counterclockwise hub rotation, coupled with a hub polar shift.
