I think I can see the first E, in CENT, two more times. I didn't know if that was a clash or just considered a a double punch.

If you could get a better closeup of the area in question we could better see what you're seeing.

Can't be a die clash. A die clash would show some of the
devices from the Obverse on the fields of the Reverse.

To me, I can see that E a few times, and it also looks like an extra image of Lincoln on obverse to the right over date.

I think you are seeing a combination of stains and the patterns created by a subpar alloy mix in the coin metal that has created a woodie cent

Yep - Doubt it's a clash, most likely a "woody" cent with improper alloy mixture.

You've already created a thread about this coin, and I answered it for you. There's no need to created another one that's the same. It's a Improper Alloy Mix Issue as mentioned, and the extra letters that you're seeing is just stains, caused by the Improper Alloy Mix. http://www.error-ref.com/improper-alloy-mix/ http://goccf.com/t/329583
