Looks like a plated cent.
Seems to be MD or the plating issue.
The G looks interesting though.
First off, just check it with a magnet to
be sure it's not steel :)

I'm losing it. Why did I assume it was a 1944 lincoln ?

There was another recent post (by xZACKx) about a 1944 Cent, may have thought of that one.

I'm thinking it is non-DDO. You are doing well with that microscope!

The G does looks a bit interesting, but I think it's still just MD without any split serifs or significantly raised doubling.

How can you tell the difference between MD and actually Double die?

Machine doubled. Classic example:  On a doubled die the devices would be enlarged:   Enlarged devices. Not the same year as the example of the OP. |
