With all due respect Grushna, you haven't even followed up with your 1972-D supposed doubled die after being asked to do so and now you have posted another coin........ Please answer the question(s) asked by other members regarding your previous posts before posting something else so that there can be some closure. Thank you.

I see what you're describing, but these 'features' were not struck (as part of the design) at the mint. Not an error in my opinion. I'm thinking Pareidolia.

Whatever it is, it didn't happen during the striking of the coin. It is just damage of some sort looking like numbers.
Grushna, Something like is is impossible to happen during the striking of a coin. Ghost letters can't suddenly appear without them being on the striking die in which case all of the coins would have it on them.

Pareidolia is the tendency for perception to impose a meaningful interpretation on a nebulous stimulus, usually visual, so that one sees an object, pattern,

Here's another picture of the 1920 I understand what you guys are saying about you know seeing numbers and everything especially with that number one that was next to that zero its your eyes playing tricks on you but please zoom in on the 1920 and there's something behind the nine the two and the zero behind the nine it looks like an eight or maybe a nine the two I'm not sure and then the zero it looks like a one here's another pic or you can look at the previous picture as well

Grushna, you are seeing things that may appear to you as being part of the coin, but they just aren't there. Little specks from circulation can accumulate, but simply, as others have said in this thread, the coin did not leave the mint with these "ghost numbers" minted onto this coin. It's akin to finding animals in the clouds floating by. You're seeing things that in reality, just aren't there, sorry.

Grushna Errors can only occur during the striking of the coin. Please tell me how you think these ghost letters can suddenly appear while the coin is being struck. It is impossible.

Looks like a large contact mark that is affecting the all the digits at the same time and part of the bow tie. A lot of circulation flattening. Not hub doubling.
