Stumbled upon this coin while putting a pile of wheat pennies into jars by decades. There is clearly something going on with the Obverse. The front of Lincolns face, and parts of the date show signs of what i would call doubling. The doubling is most pronounced on Lincoln's face, the date also has minor doubling but you need a loupe to really see this.
Take A Look. And Let Me Know What You Think. Double Die or Machine Doubling?
Original Pictures were taken using a magnifying glass and and off-center point of view.
Update New Photos Below
These were all taken looking at the coin directly overhead. I also was unable to make use of the magnifying glass.
The Reverse does not have any doubling. There are a couple areas on the Reverse that have wear. Just under the "E" in ONE, and below the America between the wheat stocks at the bottom.
Happy Hunting Everyone!!!
