I see that same effect around his eye. I'm new at this but I'm gonna guess Machine Doubling. We'll see what the experts say.

Sorry about that I think I used the wrong terminology I mean to say Die Deterioration.

If any at all, I'm only seeing very light doubling near Lincoln's forehead and some in the RT of LIBERTY. Probably little to no premium on this, but neat find nonetheless!

This coin is UNC and it looks like it came from a set of some sort. I'm doubting Die Deterioration because it's nice and detailed with no big flow lines and the date is crisp, just my opinion though. I don't see any bag marks on it either only a couple small scratches. One of the experts will tell us before long and honestly I'm happy either way because it's one of the best coins I have. Thanks y'all for your time and sharing information. I have definitely learned a lot already on this forum.

The doubling seen on the nose, hairline, forehead, and probably on the beard and neck is common on cents from time to time.

I edited this post to correct some misinformation about the doubling, I sometimes get my wires crossed

It looks like MD on the profile.

I cannot see a doubled die here for sure, but it could be a minor unlisted one. It's sometimes hard to tell looking only at photos.
