hmm definately looks thicker but it could be Die Deterioration....the 1917 double die which is rare is a bit more noticeable imo as regarding the date but the liberty looks interesting...i also dont see a L it looks like I I hah which makes me believe its not a double die...but I'm no expert

Circulation flattening is all I see. Note how circulation wear still shows on a doubled die:

The spread is still visible. So it is a normal coin.

Thanks again coop! I wondered about circulation causing that flattend look. Makes a lot of sense. I just discovered copper coins.com too! What a great resource!
