Hello everyone, I was going through some of my coins under the scope and I wasnt sure what i was looking at here. Anyone have any info they can share? Probably nothing interesting, but I would rather ask people that know. Thanks in advance.

looks like machine doubling to me but the S sure looks interesting. Can you by chance get a close up of the S?

1. Please post screenshots and not a picture of your screen. A picture of a screen will show pixelation and sometimes interference lines when zoomed to look at details. This is specifically true the smaller the coin is in size.
