Hello everyone!
I saw a video that talked about this coin, I went to check if mine had it and I came across this mark.
Could it be a double die obverse?
Thank you to everyone who responded.

Terminology correction, coins are struck or minted, banknotes are printed.
I see no doubling on your cent, I do see a lot of minor anomalies that are
showing because of your photos being enlarged so much.
Just about any coin with the size increased by that much will show some sort of defect.
A TPG only uses a 5X loop when grading coins.

Agree, plenty die polishing marks, not seeing any errors.

Thank you all for your comments, just one detail I saw on the coin and just out of curiosity I'm posting this photo.
It looks like Lincoln has two eyes, I know it's not a double, but it looks interesting.

Looks more like random circulation hits (reed marks?) - but what do I know.

Another question for learning reasons.
What causes these marks on the coin as shown in the photos below?
Thank you

If you look at a coin long enough, you can find anything you want to. We've all done it. It's called, Pareidolia.

Increasing the size of your photo that much will show minor anomalies on nearly any coin.
If you have to increase it by more than 5X, it is irrelevant as it won't be recognized by any of the top graders.
Show a photo at 5X and then look if you can see anything.

Looks pretty normal. I'm only seeing Die Polishing lines and Pareidolia.

Thanks for the comments.
While searching for Double Die references, I found these photos, and I also used them as a reference for the zoom.
I'm going to make this last post with a photo to clear up any doubts that arose with the references.
Thanks for your patience, I'm learning and I need to understand the differences between these minting defects.
