Not seeing die-related doubling. Early stage Die Deterioration on the obverse--hint of Ridge Ring. I see a circulation hit on the E in STATES.

I appreciate all the feedback. I seen so many videos on YT where one person says this is Doubling and then another where someone else says that is Doubling so I was just confused. But I'll take all the feedback and advice if anyone felt like offering to links/sites/videos they would recommend for newbies if. Thanks again

I see more coin contact issues than any hub doubling.

I agree with John1. Check out coops links and you will learn a tremendous amount. Also, here are some external website links that a lot of members use here for both learning and for determining what you may have.
Lincolncentresource.com
VarietyVista.com
Doubledie.com
Coppercoins.com
Hope this helps!!

When you compare a doubled die with a normal coin, with both images in the same location, then you will see where the differences are:
1971-Lincoln-Cent-Doubling?
Note the centers of the size of the devices on the DDR's. See where the doubling is? It is the centers of the devices that area wider/taller. Where are you looking on coins? The outside edge of the devices. The centers show the hub doubling:
1971-Lincoln-Cent-Doubling?
Also note, that most of the time the doubling is same/similar/changing depending on the type of doubled die they are. The image with the 'E' flattened on your images? That is not doubling. That is a contact mark. If it were doubling wouldn't you expect it be on all the devices in that area. Now look again at the images? Do you see the differences now? Moving the eyes from one location to another, you loose the differences. But seeing them side by side is the way to see the differences better.
