I need some help with this beat up little coin. Is the doubling I'm seeing on "Liberty", the date, and mint mark Machine Doubling, or some form of die deteroration? Or this just a highly worn penny? Thoughts?

Machine Doubling on a well-circulated coin--with a light touch of circulation flattening. Die deterioration--early stages--on the obverse. All-in-all, a classic circulated '68 S cent.

I agree with ijn1944 above, Machine Doubling and some circulation flattening. No premium I'm afraid.
