I don't think that's doubling, but I'm not sure what that is... perhaps just an imperfection in the die

Keep in mind: If it is raised, the is usually a die issue. The bays/fields are on the outside edge of the die. So it the die gets damage (indented), these devices will be raised on the coins struck. Until this is polished off the die, the coins will still show it.

For some reason to me it looks like a little gob of glue possibly. Could just be the lighting in the photo however. A soak in acetone would dissolve it, if it actually is glue.

Great thanks for all the input-does acetone damage a coin? Thanks

I think what scropper and coop said is most likely-I've looked at it every angle with a 16x and mabi it's the lighting I dunno but it's definitely copper colored and raised-I thought some plating issue,I don't know too much about plating so I'm going with those guys-in other words worth a penny I reckon lol

Elmers glue is almost transparent. But if it were glue chances of it being just in the bay would be unlikely. Note how it doesn't flow onto the ceiling of roof.

Yeah it's definitely not glue that I can see-hard to get in the pictures but in a good lights and angle I can see a clear edge of the mark in question it's clearly copper-I can mabi try get a pic on that angle later on-but either way you seem pretty certain it's nothing of value even if,am I correct coop?
