1937 LC struck thru multiple fibers and other foreign possible ddo?

it does not appear to be stuck by a substance because they look stuck in the planchet. I have seen what appears to be yellow, red, and black. there is also one on the obv under abes chin and beside it there appears to a tiny grain of sand?? I don't want to push my luck but the D in GOD looks like a separation line is present and notching on the D. I understand there is crud there. if you have a suggestion on how I mean get it off without damaging the coin to get better photos I am all ears. thanks in advance.

Gnarley...wonder what @Fred Weinberg thinks

 

Interesting

 

Does anyone agree that what I think I see might be there?

 

It certainly seems to exibit some form of doubling. Hard for me as a novice to tell whether its die or machine though.

 

@bryantallard
Would you like me to teach you how to post full images?
It would help us out a lot, especially people looking at your coin on the phone, i got so annoyed with clicking back and forth that i had to come on my computer.. i am sure a lot of people want you to learn

 

check the coin for glue....

 

I think a bath in acetone would remove most of what we are seeing.

 

I assume that is the upper left of the D in GOD where you are showing doubling? If so, I know that is attributed to master hub doubling, I just can't find where I saw it. I will find it in a bit and link it.

EDIT: The doubled D in GOD started with the 1922 master hub & continued until the mid 1950s. See this page: http://www.lincolncentforum.com/lets-talk-about-doubling/

It's a tad past half way down the page (item #1 after the types of doubling are explained).

What does that have to do with anything he asked? The OP pointed at the separation on the upper left of the D. Not the tops of IGWT.

 

There's a very good chance OP coin was struck from one of the dies that came from that hub ( WWHO ) ...

 

If you read the comment for the WWHO for this year it states:
Comments: Most of the 1937 Lincoln cent obverse doubled dies illustrated by CONECA in their e-book appear to be from this doubled working hub.

So that means most of coneca, came from the WWHO and I'm sure that's what the OP is seeing on the " D " of his coin ( WWHO ) .

Looks to me like it has worms.

 

No, what the OP is seeing on the D is in the link I provided before. It's on every D, on every year and mint mark, from 1922-1950-something. That WWHO you linked shows doubling on the tops of IGWT. See here if you don't want to scroll down. This is a screenshot from the Lincoln Cent Forum page I linked earlier:
