Round and smooth with ghosting to the north "IN GOD WE TRUST". Nice round ghosting east of the year... pics are so so... Opinions?

Not a doubled die looks like a worn die to me.

Keep in mint the dies are made of steel and the planchets that year would made of of steel. With that combination it made the dies wear out a lot faster cause die wear to happen faster. The die wear pattern for Lincoln cents are pretty much the same. Depending on location of the devices toward the rim wear shows first on the devices near the rim. On the date it is on the right side of the devices. On LIBERTY it is on the left side of the devices. The rest of the devices it is on the tops of the letters on the motto. I think that is what you are seeing. I'm not seeing any hub doubling on your coin.
