would the eye, chin and back of the neck be an error

Also working on double die's would both e in cent and fg be doubling?

Sorry for the pictures but I hope you can see what I am talking about.

1973 cents are Spock cents.

Think mine was an 1985... but was from circulation wear / damage.

I see that 1973 cent has a really good die crack leading straight to the ear...

I do not see any doubling... but then again your pics are kinda on the small side... If you think you see something try to get a better / bigger pic posted of the area in question :)

The SPOCK is just a bonus...LOL - just some humor! Not any added value! I keep mine in my collection because I think it is funny ;) Otherwise it is a spender worth 1 cent.

Ok thanks Eye4Error and Coop I just order my USB Microscope, I should have it soon. Better pictures on the way soon, I can't wait. I feel like it is holding me back from learning so much more from you guys. Thanks again.

The eye piece your using is OK. The light is what is too strong making unwanted glare. A simple diffuser would correct that. What type of light are you using?
