Just a machine doubled coin. Worth one cent. Very common on the 1968-1972 cents to see Machine Doubling. Even the true DDO for that year, most have Machine Doubling.

Note the yellow arrows, they show where the MD is on the true Big DDO for that mint.
But how can you tell it is not the big DDO? Well more than the date is doubled:

Note the LIBERTY and Motto on this coin. All the devices you are looking at on your coin is showing reduced in size, not enlarged like the DDO is. Over 130 different examples were sent into PCGS, with the owners thinking that they were doubled dies, but were not:

Just machine doubled like your coin.

Agree just MD. Really dislike newbie requests for quick resale value. Not in the spirit of this forum.

I believe it's because some of the newbies get into coin searching through the idea of gaining large sums of money, finding something valuable, and selling it.

It's annoying for me as well.

Just Machine Doubling as mentioned. Machine Doubling adds no premium to your coin. Not gonna get much at all for this coin, sorry.

Well Greasy Fingers, Youtube may provide entertainment and excite new collectors, like CRHing, but it can also have negative effects. There are a lot of videos on Youtube that influence new collectors that they might have something, when they rarely don't. Some of the Youtube videos may get new collectors into collecting by trying to gain money. Some new collectors don't have a passion for collecting, just to make money.
