These are from a 1987 and 1988 Lincoln Cent D series.
I am hoping to get clarification or confirmation of either a MM doubling (SE direction) or zinc rot shadow that looks like doubling.

Looks like rot. Have you checked CC's site?

Yes I have, I haven't been able to line it up with anything on there. There are similar MM doubling but not in the SE direction.

I wondered if the 1987-D was a RPM. I didn't see a match on the CONECA e-disk. But I'm thinking that both coins are the result of split plating exposing the zinc and breaking down after getting oxygen for the air.
