    "Dual Die"...two different Obverse dies used on the same coin? Click here to enlarge

    I see a little shift on the date, but it looks a bit flat to me (md?). I'm not a modern Lincoln cent guy...don't go by me. Click here to enlarge

    That is a doubled die.. no doubt about it.

    Congrats, Riff!

    Definitely doesn't look like a doubled die. What you have shown shows mostly shelf doubling. Here's a true doubled die.

    Notice the split serifs.

    Now that clear pictures have been shown, I can see it is a doubled die.

    I guess I was looking at the machine doubling on the opposite side.

    Agreed...the "2" appears to show DD in that pic. However, if I'm gonna pay a premium for a doubled die coin, I want it to look like this...Click here to enlarge

    It's Shelflike, it's machine doubling. Check out the link, it's a flyer from Coneca describing and showing the different doubling types.
