Hi Everyone!

I'm very new to coin collecting, but happened to come across this 1983 Lincoln Penny yesterday while cleaning out my basement. I was just wondering if anyone could give me any feedback on if the penny is double die or not. Any information/ feedback in general about the penny is also very much welcomed!

P.S. I apologize if the pictures provided are of bad quality, please let me know if I need to post additional ones.

Looks like PMD and circulation flattening. Not a doubled die.

Are you seeing anything which suggests a doubled die occurrence?

This coin is a spender. Zinc rot is eating away at it on the obverse.
