I hope I'm right about this find. so far I haven't got one thing right that I've asked your help on. So I'm not really sure if I want to be let down again. I really want to see that I'm learning. So what do you think of my find and if the pictures are good enough what kind of grade would that penny be.n

Not seeing a DDR. What attribution number do you think your coin might be? Also, too many photos.

Looks like slight Machine Doubling. If it were a DDR, then the devices would be enlarged:

Your coin is showing a small reduction from Machine Doubling. When you look too close, anything can look huge when you look too close.

Sorry, no DDR. Practice taking better sharp photos and only show us a couple of them. Too many photos like you have here, turns viewers off. Generally, we like to see one overall photo of the whole coin, both sides, then one or two close-ups of areas of interest, and that's it.

Good pictures, but where are you seeing doubling? Looks completely normal to me.

Do you not see the very strong spread lines on all the devices in the picture of the DDR you posted? The devices are much wider than the ones on your coin because the second hubbing has expanded them aby about 1.25-1.5x the normal thickness and left behind a very strong delineation boundary between the two impressions in the form of the vertical "spread lines."
