Just looking through some coins and I managed to find this. There is certainly something going on with the columns. Since I'm not good with doubling, I've decided not to make an opinion of it and will let all of you decide.

That is part of the design. It is meant to look 3-D.

Well this is going to make it a LOT harder when looking for DDR's relating to the columns, I looked over a couple others around the same date and they don't have those two streaks. Guess there worn down? I don't know anymore

Those two columns are part of the design. Due to how shallow on the die they are, it's not difficult for them to wear away due to die abrasion or deterioration.

There are actually 4 fake columns on the Memorial reverse:

These are trying to show the rows of columns behind these columns of the building.

You are trying to look for the actual doubling of the column bar itself. The column bar DDR's take place where Abe is.
