A die that is well past its expected life span.

 

oh ok, thank you

 

What do i look up to learn about it and thank you so much

 

Search for deteriorated dies.

 

This link may help some.http://www.error-ref.com/die-deterioration-doubling-raised/

 

OP, check the top under side of the " E " cross bar .
Same with the middle cross bar too .. Could be wexler DDR #1 .

 

Looks like the placement ( DDR ) on the mint-mark matches too .

 

so could that be what those three lines above the letters in state could be or would that be from old die also?

 

Could be from grease ..

 

Here's the one ( DDR ) I was talking about .
See if your coin has any doubling on the designers signature .





1992-D 1¢ WDDR-001

Description: Notches show on the lower letters of ONE CENT. Extra thickness shows on the designer’s initials.

Die Markers: Obverse: A small die gouge can be found near the vest to the left of the bottom of the mint mark. Reverse: A die gouge can be found between the Memorial and the top of the O in ONE.

I agree. It's most likely grease, not deterioration

 

these were the best photos I could take.

 

I only have doubling in some letters

 

Looks good to me, DDR-001 ...
