This penny Looks like it has something going on with the 986 in the date 1986 and possibly with the mint mark as well. Lincoln's tuxedo looks a little undefined near the date too. If any one has any idea what happened to this coin please share.

I'm not sure but perhaps it is a plating problem. Either that or Machine Doubling...

Thank you for your response buddy. I found this website. http://koinpro.tripod.com/Articles/...Doubling.htmIt is by a gentleman named Ken Potter. I looked long and well at every doubling listed there. I can't seem to put my finger on it. I also found this website with the double die variety I may have. please look and if you could leave a message on what you think about the coin that would be great. I thank you in advance for your time. Here is the link: http://www.doubleddie.com/828970.htmlYou will have to cut and paste the links in your adress bar. Thank you.

Die Deterioration on devices facing the rim on the date. Also die abrasion to cover an older clash/clashes. Just common stuff. Sorry

I checked the photos on Wexler's site and I don't think your matches.
I DO see what you're seeing on that coin but as others posted, it is just the result of an old worn die.
You might want to keep it as a reference. I keep all the little oddities I find (and I will continue to do so until I fill the jelly jar).
I keep searching and hoping....

On the left side of the screen. See where it says "donate" after the coins sub-divisions.
