Any body else seen what looks like a double ear on the 2005 D Lincoln?

Take a look at the side by side pic I shot of two 2005 D's and tell me what you think. Am I seeing what I want to see or is there something to this.

Thanks for looking.

Sorry but the picture is too small to see what you are trying to show us.

I see what you are looking at. The cent on the left has it's lobe rounded at the bottom and the one on the right is pointy and longer. Is that what you are seeing?

I'm comparing a 2005 PR70 cent (can't go wrong ) and it's ear looks likethe one on the cent to the left. Not sure what's with the other, though.

Thanks for the responses.
I will try to get closeup of ear shot.
Coin on the right has a definite seperation of the lobe. Just something I spotted while doing my daily coin inspections. Maybe I can find another one of these to support the theory.

If it is that little depression on the earlobe, it is not a doubled die. I see that quite often on cents. It's just a small nick. It may have something to do with how the coin ends up counted and rolled.
