I wonder if these are doubled? Both are slightly different with notching either in the first 4 in coin "A" and on the second 4 on coin "B". Coin B has the damaged 4 but the notch can still be seen on the 2nd (or last 4). Both 9's I think have the double appearance. Thoughts?

To me they both look like normal well worn 44's.

"B" looks like it may have been a DDO. But the circulation wear/damage pretty much makes it almost impossible to tell which one it was?

Thanks John and Coop for having a look. Too bad coin B is kinda beat up. I have question: is the notch in the 4 a normal common feature? I only see it on listings of double dies...I don't find it in common coins. Just wondering?
This is coin A

It looks like a doubled die. I saw that earlier an wondered. But I thought the outside 4 would be more affected. The 005,008,015 and 22 are the four listed on CC. You might check to see if any markers match? But the 4 mentioned do no show the first 4 affected and the second 4 not affected.

I'll have to check other sources later to see if I can find a die like this one. I wondered if this was just coin damage at first?

CONECA doesn't have any listing on the E-Disk that has the first 4 doubled and the last one looking normal.
Wexler's book doesn't list any 1944-P DDO. (There are probably several listed, just not in the publication.

I would keep them aside for now. Who know a marker for the "B" maybe found on another coin. The "A" coin maybe be something new, or may just be a damaged coin? So I would not toss them back into your wheats pile yet.
