It is a totally normal coin, with issues. A bad plating job over zinc dust. Coin contact altering the shape of the devices/fields/bust/building. The typical weak strike on States is common to find. When the metal runs sort, then the devices are not as tall. Sometimes a Struck Through Grease issue can make the devices to look wider. But your coin is just a spender.

Agree with coop. Given the somewhat contrasty photos and the evidence of a bad plating job, all I'm seeing is a common 2000 D cent with moderate circulation wear (rubs, dings, etc.).

I see a completely normal penny with a Charlie Day Pepe Silvia Conspiracy amount of arrows drawn on it.

I appreciate the opinions and feedback from the community on this post. I see something in this coin. lol I won't be spending this 2000d cent. Into a capsule it will go. I can't ignore the polishing to remove the clashing from around Lincolns head. Lincolns hair on this cent, from some angles, looks worn down to the field/surface level.I also can't look past the die crack entering the top of his head, spike head, from the rim above which travels right next to his ear and out of his beard and into the date causing issue with the date.. I can't look past the three die cracks that travel into the back of Lincolns head. One of them marked his upper ear, one his mid and the other his lower ear lobe, causing appeared doubling, and then each independently traveling, one out his eye, one his nose and the last crack through his mouth. I finally can't ignore the die crack traveling through LIBERTY into Lincolns back which exits the lower vest and into the mint mark causing issues with the mint mark. I could repost all the die markers on the reverse but I think they were visible and pointed out in the photos above. Thanks everybody, Coindom76

This 2000d cent does have alot of issues. If it doesn't have a listing then it's normal they say. I wasn't looking for a handout but come on community. My dad use to tell me, " If you stick a persons face directly into the fire then don't be suprised when they look at you strangely afterwards".
Thanks, Coindom76

The reason I say it's normal isn't because it doesn't have a listing. I say it's normal because there is absolutely no evidence of a doubled die or a die clash. Please spare us the melodrama. You have been told what we think, you can either take that advice or not, but don't be so pouty about the fact that we don't see whatever your 10,000 arrows are pointing at.

As a general rule:One full coin photo of the obverse and one full coin photo of the reverse as well as one or two close ups when and where needed. If we need more photos we will kindly ask for what we need to help the poster. John1

@coindom I think common sense should be enough to realize that there is a diminishing rate of returns on additional pictures of the same coin. At some point, we have seen all we need to see, which is the case with this coin. It is not a DDO / DDR or a die clash. I really do try to take my time before bursting someone's bubble, since there is nothing worse than a person finding a true variety or error coin and then being talked out of it here (this is a learning community, and that only hurts the learning process), so believe me when I say I've looked at your coin closely and I am quite convinced there is nothing there. Time to move on to the next one.
