This is a unique error I would like to know

I can see the wheat from the reverse on the obverse and would like to know what to call it and is this a ghost D

Lamination planchet issues.

No ghost. Just Pareidolia.

Not unique. Common issue on Wheat Cents.

 

Did you see the wheat on the obverse by the N

 

As Paddy said above. Plus how can a ghost image of the D be a different font and size?

 

Didn't you know? Ghosts can change shape and form.

 

Darn, I forgot about those shapeshifters, lol

 

One of the perks of dying. You can float through walls and and all that fun stuff.

 

By the N, it doesn't look like wheat to me, just some die damage

 

Tom, your close up shows what looks like damage. Something was pressed hard against the coin and it left an impression. If you look closely, you can see part of the marks going over the device (letter) so it was on top of the coin.
I can see why you questioned it with those close-ups, but sometime we just look too hard.
