Moreover, the secondary images look just like the normal devices on the coin.  In other words, a machine doubled coin will be flat instead of raised, as shown in the image below.

“Furthermore, doubled letters will often show “splits” in the serifs of the letters whenever the letters have serifs.  Additionally, if the letters have squared off corners, then those corners will often show strong “notches.”

“Moreover, the “spread” refers to the separation between the doubled design.  Most importantly, the spread of the doubling varies and may be very wide or extremely close.”  A magnifying loupe is necessary to see most doubled die coins.

Furthermore, it’s possible for a coin to be a genuine doubled die that displays machine doubling.  Learning the difference can be challenging for new collectors.  For this reason, online coin communities and groups are great for getting more than one opinion.

Therefore, finding one in mint state condition will fetch a very nice premium.
