1971-P Lincoln Memorial Cent DDO?

Any thoughts on whether this is a genuine doubled die? I noticed some doubling on the date and split serifs on the U of TRUST, and faint spread throughout the obverse. I Just found it in a mixed container of 70's cents so not sure how well it would grade, or if it's worth sending in. Also, any thoughts on grade?

Looks like a very light DDO. The more the doubling, the greater the worth.

 

Maybe it's just me, but I don't see any doubling at all.

I Agree.

 

I'll try and get a better picture tomorrow. It was most noticeable in the top left of the 7 in the date. Also at the tops of the U in Trust though the center of each end

 

I don't think other photos will change my opinion.

I'm having trouble with lighting washing out the ends where the spreading appears to be so I just tried a few different setups.

I also found this as reference:

@Tanton , I still don't see it.

Besides, I've always held the opinion that if you need to use a microscope with a high degree of magnification to see the doubling, then it isn't worthwhile anyway.
