Okay guys, got another one for you to solve.

I was looking at a 1973 cent to see if it had the DDO variety. And I saw something strange with the O, so I'll leave it to you guys.

CoinCollector2000,

I am not sure what strangeness you are referring to (probably my eyes . Could you let us know what you are seeing that seems out of the ordinary?

Sudz, I saw a line in the O, but I noticed the pictures aren't the best. Will post better pics later.

Here is a side by side of a DDO and normal coin. Seems the area to check is the O & D on GOD.

COOP, do you see any signs of doubling, or do you need a wider range of pictures?

Larger images of area in the images I posted would help. Sometimes coin contact can flatten and make it appear to be doubling on the tops of devices. The biggest clue would be if the devices are wider? If not, then it may just be damage. Note the enlarging from the hubbing on my examples posted above. That will help with your on hand examination.
