@clarapedrero1989, first welcome to CCF. Second, when I blow up your pic, it looks to me like you might be looking at the date and wondering if it is doubled. Rather, it looks to me like the plating might be split and that is what you are seeing. No numismatic premium for this, although yours is a nice example. I'm interested to know if there was anything else that you saw with this cent.  "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

Thank you everyone for your quick responses. I'm actually having a hard time uploading more picture but I will keep trying untill I figure it out. The main thing I see is definitely doubling and a very nice purplish color to it. Thanks I have alot more very interesting ones I need thoughts about

The coin is exhibiting Die Deterioration Doubling. (Die wear) On the single squeeze dies this shows on the fields as a raised area. Like your coin the raised area for the date is on the right, Liberty on the left sides of the devices and tops of the letters on the motto. Yours is just starting to show on the coin the deterioration. It keeps getting worse until the die is retired.  Hope this helps. |

Looks like the same event is happening on the reverse as well. The cent is also showing Die Deterioration towards the rim there as well. The LIBERY is showing DD toward the rim on the left side of the devices. ( Always to the side closest to the rim) |

Shouldn't 1992 be Wide AM? And is that the true color? ? Edited by Occirats

I'm sorry to break this to you, but this coin is only worth face value since Die Deterioration Doubling is a very common error and is part of normal wear and tear on the die. It's worth 1 cent. Don't sell this coin.  Errers and Varietys.
