I'm new to coin community & searching for Coin Errors and wanted to ask about these Two 1969 S Lincoln Pennies. Both of the 9's in the date Loop the correct way according to Verified Examples.If you notice the number #1 Coin, the letters in "In God We Trust" are sloppy, Doubled @ Top of letters GOD. The Date is also Doubled on Left of numbers. The #2 Coin's S Mint Mark is not a clean stamped S being stamped separately. Help in possibly Validation of Errors is greatly appreciated.

I will assume you are asking if these are THE famous Doubled Die.

No neither are not. Just normal 69S's. The effect of the top of devices is known as Die Deterioration.

Would something subtle as that make it an error coin?

That is due to die wear and is called Die Deterioration Doubling ( DDD). It is not considered an error. The date on #1 looks like it may have some MD (machine/mechanical doubling/damage) which is also not considered an error. Normal coins, I'm afraid.
