    I have this penny that really looks like a double hit. Not totally sure what I'm looking at though. What do you all think?

    Coins are not hit, they are minted. There are numerous things that can cause doubling like you see on this coin. This is from a worn die and that’s very common. It does nothing to increase its value but it is a great educational piece.

    I assume you mean "this is what it would look like if it were a real doubled die, but it isn't", right?

    Welcome to CT @Wdustin1.
    I'm not sure how you are posting your photos to the post, but if you can, after loading them, you should see two buttons; Thumbnail, and Full Image. Click on Full Image and it allows us to easily see, and enlarge, the picture for better assessment.
    Good luck.

    I agree with the die deterioration ( Wear), but it is easier to tell on Lincolns if it shows the L in Liberty as it spreads to the edge and causes the "fake" doubling
    due to wear. Saves money for the mint though :) Jim
