Good call on the MD!👍

And...
Here is a way to find immediate answers when find something you suspect is a doubled die or RPM:
Immediate answers -varietvista.com:
Please click the following link:

Immediate Answers - How to find your Doubled Die or RPM online

Note:
If you do not find your coin using this easy method, then you most likely have a damaged coin or other issues like (non collectable) machine doubling, die deterioration doubling, etc. (look these up at error-ref.com)

My scope is only x10 magnification. Also, I have a legitimate medical issue with my vision on why I use it.

coppercoins.com, doubleddie.com, and varietiyvista.com are always the first place I go.

I have an issue with my vision where if I use a jewelers loupe for any more than a few minutes at a time my vision gets really blurry where I can't see anything clearly. However, if I view something on a digital display it doesn't seem to have the same effect on me. I have the condition where if I view things from a distance there's no real issue, however, if I view things up close they become really blurry.

I'm going to add it to my "Collection of examples of machine doubling." I also have my real DDO collection as well. As time goes on it gets easier to determine the difference between the two. One of the things I like about finding some of the "minor" DDO is that they are harder to identify as actually being a DDO compared to coins that are more obvious.
