@look, Where are you seeing doubling with the coin in hand? This looks pretty normal to me.

Given the single photo posted, I'm seeing a common, circulated '69 S Memorial cent.

I agree - not seeing anything special. Look online for actual pics of the 1969 S doubled die - this coin is not even close :(

If you mean DDO-001, not a chance. The doubling on 001 is so dramatic it can be clearly seen with the naked eye. If you had it, there would be absolutely no question.

If it were the big DDO, then even that close would show the hub doubling:

No where near the big one. A very large percentage of the 1968-1972 cents have Machine Doubling. The machine alters the coins after the strike. On a doubled die, the machine had nothing to do with it. The doubling is on the die. Thus Machine Doubling can happen even on this big DDO:
Note the dates on these images:

They are all of the same big DDO. But not the yellow arrows? That is where Machine Doubling altered even these doubled dies. A doubled die is caused by the hub doubling on the created die. So you can have a machine doubled doubled die, but you cannot have a doubled die, caused by the machine. The doubling is on the die. Thus the term "Doubled Die." Face the facts.
