Hi, I have a few questions about the coin in these pictures, it is a 1907 Indian Head cent.
1. Is the 1 in the date doubled?
2. Is the 9 doubled also?
3. What is the arrow pointing to in the bottom half of the 9, is it an RPD?
4. Why is the 7 so thick and bold?
Thank You.

There 47 varieties for the 1907 IHC, more than any other date. I believe your coin appears to be an Snow-5. Minor repunching under the flag of the 1. That repunching is hard to see because of the wear on your coin. Another repunching at the base of the '1' to the southeast, and repunching of the '9' which shows as a nub in the lower loop. Snow lists this as a scarce variety but only gives it a 2 star rating. That is a nice variety that you have.

Snow has an attribution guide where he describes and shows photos of varieties for all IHC and FE. I purchased a hard copy, but you can also purchase and download a copy on your computer. Your coin almost matches the picture in Snow's guide perfectly.
