What you're seeing is the flattening of the devises. When that happens it makes it appear as if it's doubled.

@TBC, can you please also post overall pics of this coin? Also, maybe a close-up of the date as you mentioned potential doubling there? Thx.

They do resemble each other except one small detail ,on my cent there appears to be another letter on side overlapping creating the split down the middle where on your coin I don't see an image of another letter on side the other ones ,thanks for looking where would one find an example of a flattens out die with a ridge and what would create the ridge instead of flattening out more uniformly again thanks for looking

That is called plate disturbance doubling. Everything you're seeing on your cent is normal. Just circulation wear.

Circulation wear,sounds kind of odd,,if this is a cause of circulation wear why are there not alot more of them especially in older coins,like I mentioned I have looked at alot of change over the years and this is the only one I've ever seen like this, what created the other image that is either overlapping the other one or vice versa thanks again,I'm not trying to be difficult I'm just looking for reasoning and answers that makes sense to me where I don't have to ask stupid questions on and on because sometimes not always but alot of times I have trouble believing what some people tell me to be reasons my coins are the way they are and debunk everything I post but nobody can show me examples,like your coin thank you,of anything like what I post,I would think if some people are so sure that my coins can't be what I think they are because they have seen so many of them but can't produce examples then I have problems I'm sure all the experts out there haven't seen everything that could possibly happen but thanks for your picture and hopefully I can get some good info throughout my posts

Your pics are kind of blurry but after your description you may have a high bounce machine doubled cent which is worthless doubling. Go to errorref.com, scroll down and type in "high bounce Machine Doubling" and you can read and see examples. Great site if you really want to know what you're seeing. If you still can't find what you're looking for then go to doubleddie.com and follow the attribution link. Put fifteen bucks in an envelope and let Mr. John Wexler give you an experts opinion. I hope he sees something that we don't. Good luck! Edited by Jim0815
