Guys, I just find that the number two looks kind of fat and tapered.
Is this a Doubled Die coin ?

Sorry. That is master die doubling 50% of all the cents that year had the master die doubling on them. So they are common. Here are other things to look for on these MDD:

Guess what, that is just the Philly ones. The Denver and San Francisco mints also have doubled die. But most are the Philly ones. Some of the DDO also include the master die doubling on them. These are mostly on the '2' on the date. But do you know what the biggest clue is on finding these? The '9' on the date:

The '9' gets affected the most. The stronger the doubling the 10:00 area is affected. Note the arrows on the images.
