    I may have found my first doubled die with this 1981 cent. Does it look like this classification?

    If you will tell us where you see doubling and provide close up images, we can tell you whether we agree, or not.

    I do not see any evidence of doubling from your picture. I see a worn and circulated coin.
    FYI - It always helps to say where you see what you think you see.

    I use a 40x loupe magnifying glass. Here’s the clearest closest view of the date.

    Neither of those pictures are clear. Your coin is not doubled either.

    It's a movie with Joseph Gordon Levitt, Emily Blunt, and Bruce Willis

    I’m still learning how to identify doubled die coins. Thank all you for your patience.
