See if it matches to any of theses http://www.coppercoins.com/lincoln/dietype.php?date=1972&die_mint=d&die_type=do&page=0
Nope. It looks like doubling on the 9 of the date but nothing else is doubled. I was referring to the rim of the coin.
Is that a faint D? Its hard for me to tell because I have 150 colored lines running through my computer.
It looks like a Misaligned Die (MAD) - but would need to see the reverse to rule out slightly off-center as well - (MAD will have the reverse centered properly. If it's an off-center, the reverse will also show the approximate off-centering as the obverse). Most collectors of MADs prefer design elements to be eaten into, but... I do see some similar MADs on eBay that sell for a few dollars. Probably all depends on who is putting together a date-set and needs a 1972-D. So... yes, I believe it has value beyond 1 cent like you asked, you just need to find the right buyer Edit: Here is one on eBay similar to yours that sold for .99 + 2.32 shipping http://www.ebay.com/itm/1972-D-MISA...D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557
