    Here is a 1956 D Lincoln Wheat Penny where "LIBERTY" NEXT TO "B" IS A LINE NEXT TO IT AND THE MINT MARK "D" LOOKS KINDA CROOKED AND ON THE OBVERSE LOOKS LIKE A "S" RIGHT ABOVE THE WORD "ONE" AND A FEW THINGS HERE AND THERE ON THE PENNY

    What about next to the B being doubled

    Those photos are to blurry, I think that the line next to the B is damage but a better photo would rule out the possibility of a IIB.
    MM were hand punched into the working dies. the MM can twist and be in different positions. depends on how many dies were made.

    Some times to get better detail, Folks will use a magnifying glass, loupe and there phone.
    I still think that it is damaged. But a new IIB would be a cool find.
    If you don't know what they are.
    Here is a reference to the known IIB's and BIE's.

    The B looks like a Die Wear issue.. Flat and shelflike.. Not a Doubled Die

    Looks like pushed metal. It is just damage.

    Looks like a well-placed hit to my eye, but same difference at this point.

    I made my first copy stand. Out of some cedar lumber. One of the biggest keys is camera stability. I agree the photos are getting better.;)
