Can you explain where you're seeing doubling? Have you tried to match it with listings on a reference site like variety vista, Wexler's die varieties, or coppercoins? Also, doubled die, not "double."

I'm not seeing anything other than a typical '85 Memorial cent.

Reverse image seems to suggest a die crack appearing through O in ONE. Lincoln's head may have hit above the ear?

Nothing looks out of the ordinary, but you still haven't explained where on the coin you think you're seeing doubling.

Okay, well I would say no, almost definitely not a doubled die. Please feel free to add information if you'd like a more specific response.

Please tell us (show us) where you matched up your coin to another.

And please tell us what areas on your coin you believe are doubled. Can you circle them on your image?
