I have this 1976 Lincoln Penny that has doubling on the obverse that puts me in mind of a 1958, or a 1969 S DDO's . I could use some help and some feedback.

First, we really need to see both sides of your coin, and we need sharp closeups. Where exactly do you see doubling? Please give us a sharp, in focus closeup of that area. Thanks.

Given the images posted, I'm not seeing doubling--certainly not in the class of the famous '55 or '69 S.

Here it is the photos of one of the three 1958. This it is the red MS65 (single coins from 3 ones.)

Good pics coop. One way I have been able to discern, if in fact it is a 1976 DDO aside from the massively large devices on 001 and 002, is that on WDDO-001 and 002 I look at the L and I in LIBERTY. Notice how the bottom leg (horizontal leg) of the L appears to "push into" the letter I directly next to it creating what appears as a concave area on the bottom left of the I. Just a tid bit of advice on these two varieties to better help recognize them. As far as WDDO-003..... I don't have such a readily noticeably method. 003 is a bit more difficult to recognize.
