I'm not sure on this one. I'll wait to see what the other members think.

I agree hard to tell as it also looks like the lower lid (and maybe the upper lid) have taken a hit.

This "extra eyelid" is not in the right place. It should be between the upper and lower eyelid not in front of the lower one.

I'm not saying it isn't a doubled die, I'm saying it's not DDO-001. A lot of new doubled eyelids have been discovered on the older wheats recently. It's difficult to tell if this might be another one or not.

Have you tried a lite wipe of the coin? Looks like something was on the nose area? The one white spot made it look normal straight or too long to be an extra eyelid.
