It is a normal Cent with flattened, mushy devices a result of 76yrs. of circulation.But a great one to find in the wild.

A well-circulated 40s Wheat cent. Is that a die crack running vertically through Lincoln's head? |

Just circulation wear and flattening on the devices. Not a Doubled Die.
Errers and Varietys.

The obverse does look mushy but.... Have you looked closely at the reverse? I see some lite thickness on the motto, especially the bottom of the U's. If you are up for it post some close-up images of both wheats and ERI (AMERICA) My eyes might be playing tricks on me but there appears to be a similar die scratch going WNW from the top of the L (PLURIBUS) on 1944s DDR-007 http://varietyvista.com/01a%20LC%20...4SDDR007.htmIn the future, it is helpful to mention which type of doubling you think you are seeing and where it is on the coin. It puts lots of pairs of eyes on particular areas. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Does that mean that this, too, is a DDO?  |

I guess some people will say it's a Doubled Die but for me personally I would never consider it one.

Possibly so. It might be the same die number or 006, You would need to check the mintmark locations to see if they are the same or different. But it showing the same distortion on the 44.

This is not a doubled die. Just a very worn coin.
