Does doubling ever occur under the lettering? If so, is this a doubled die?
Also, does anyone know of a book that has pictures that go along with the error number/type reference number - for Lincoln cents?
Again, thank you in advance

"Does doubling ever occur under the lettering?"

Yes, doubling can occur just about anywhere on the coin.

"If so, is this a doubled die?"

From what I'm seeing in your pic, it appears to be Mechanical Doubling damage (MDD) and not genuine hub doubling. It has a flat, shelf-like appearance which is a characteristic of MDD.

"Also, does anyone know of a book that has pictures that go along with the error number/type reference number - for Lincoln cents?"

I'm sold out of my "A Detailed Analysis of Lincoln Cent Varieties" but I do publish the free online Die Variety News Magazine that illustrates a lot of different varieties and mint errors.

Thank you very much. I will be to sure to search the site for a way to put in an order. It is beyond frustrating to not have a reference, in hand, that has the error type (numbers) and a picture. If this is the type of book you have made, and if possible, I would like to be on a waiting list.
Again, thank you for your time and advice on this. (Have more brain for picking : )?

pennybright: I noticed that Amos Advantage (a part of Coin World magazine) has a copy of my, "A Detailed Analysis of Lincoln Cent Varieties - Volume I" available on their web site.

Amos Advantage

edited to add: Also, I'm hard at work on the next May/Jun issue of DVN Magazine. I will be devoting an article with many photos illustrating the differences between Mechanical Doubling and Die Deterioration Doubling versus genuine hub doubling.
