What Kind Of Doubling Is On This 1969-S Penny?

If the doubling you are seeing is flat and shelf like, it is machine damage during the strike. It will look something like this:

That type of doubling was common on the 1968-1972 cents.

But seeing the first image, I can tell it is not the big DDO for that year. You would see it even that far away:

Note the over all size of the devices. Yours are slightly reduced from machine damage. On hub doubling the devices are enlarged.

Yeah sorry about the blury pictures John1.
