I see nothing. And where you are looking for extra thickness, be sure you are comparing that to other 1970 cents. The letters are naturally thicker than other years because of a slight design change.

The coin may have received a contact mark. Usually you see more doubling toward the rim than on the top of the devices.

The Class 1 dies are different:

Your coin's mark is on the wrong side of the device and just on one device. Hub doubling usually affects more than one device.

I take image through a microscope with a camera. Also taking tens of thousands of images helps as well.
