Daggit, I won't say for sure, because my eyes are not the best shape they have been, however, if there are notches on the lower left of the digits, you may have a very nice coin, otherwise, just another MD. Other opinions welcome.

Not sure, but it looks like reflection? Turn the coin at different angles and see if it looks the same. Proof/proof like finishes as reflection that you have to consider.
I was looking at this nickel today and thinking of reshooting it again to show all images in the same image.
Love those splits.

Sorry, my friend, but it is MD. It takes a while to recognize the real thing, especially when there are so many that look like a DDO, or DDR. I still get confused, but less often!

Can you get a close image on the IZA of Elizabeth? Looks interesting there.

Look close at the bottom of the letters of Elizabeth.
I think it's MDD but like Coop said it looks interesting.

Well it does look very interesting. Is that the only area that has that kind of doubling? Looks like the real thing with the doubling there. But still not sure. Doubling looks like it falls in the right place, but the upper edges look like die wear. But I'm thinking it could be a doubled die. If you had more examples then you might know for sure. It could be common doubling or unique doubling. I'm not all that familiar with that coinage. But I would say its a keeper till you know for sure.
