    +1, looks like deterioration and not a doubled die.

    Either DDD like @paddyman98 and @Seattlite86 said or maybe some split plating around the date. Either way, it isn't a true doubled die and not considered an error.

    If you haven't already done so, check out Wexler's Doubleddie.com site and click on the "worthless doubling" tab. It has a good explanation and will help you ID them quickly. Nothing worse than spending a lot of time on a coin that has MD or DDD
