Looking for opinions on 1900 Indian Head

[TwoYewts]

Hello All,
Going through a batch of Indian Heads that I picked up and came across this 1900 that I believe has some doubling on the reverse. Looking for opinions, please take a look at the pics below and let me know what you think:










Thanks!

Thank you. I use an Andonstar ADSM201 usb microscope. Works very well, set it up to a 24" monitor and can run through a batch of coins in no time checking for errors, etc. Do a search for it on youtube and you will see examples of similar setups.

Yes, it is called Longacre doubling and is very common on Indian Head cents. The actual cause of the doubling has been debated, but no definitive answers that I know of.

Thank you. Definitely looks like Longacre doubling now that I compare it to examples I am finding on the web. Thanks again for the info.
