    Sorry, all I see is a normal cent with some plating issues.

    I don't see any doubling, either. All I see is a common die crack from the base of the Memorial.

    Okay.... now I'm seeing what might be doubling but you really have to provide much clearer pics.

    its doubling. it is the ddo mentioned. the die crack and die scratches on the reverse are the other markers for this ddo. i know i should have bought a dsl camera, and im kicking myself now for thinking a high end point and shoot would suffice.

    Don't feel bad about your images. Macro is tough even with great equipment.
