I think it's a normal 1924-P with some damage or a die gouge. It's definitely not a D mintmark from what I can see...sorry.
Looks like heavy wear in my opinion.
True, but the question was "why are the letters thinner?" Doubled dies do not make letters thinner, they make the devices thicker. The thinning...

F to low VF details, cleaned.
The scans aren't optimal...I couldn't really make out a vice job at first but it very may well be one. I think the important thing to realize is...

My cousin just gave me this... :) [ATTACH]
It's damage from a coin roller machine.
That reminds me, whatever happened to the 1940 "doubled nostril" you sent to PCGS? What did they slab it as? Regardless, this has nothing to do...
Here is a photo of the 1995 DDO. Red arrows point to separation lines, black arrows point to "notching". Notice the doubling is fully raised...not...
