Going to need much better photos for the ear. All I am seeing so far is a stained cent.
Errers and Varietys.

Your coin is stained and the rest looks like a normal strike.
Remember, the Zinc core Cents are copper plated and lamination or de-lamination can not occur on these coins unless there is a serious issue with the planchet..

Overall appearance of the coin points to staining only, but you'll need better photos
to get a conclusion here.

Where it's dark then gets lighter colored it's raised up right where it turns normal if that helps in any way.

Still need a sharp closeup of the head area if you want to get a definitive answer.

If so how much is it worth?] Sorry, it is written on the back/reverse - "ONE CENT" Coins get all kinds of "things" put on them while they are in car cup holders - perhaps yours was one of those. This is not any kind of error. |

If the red and blue arrows are pointing to a raised "line", I would say it's a linear playing blister but clear closeups of the area would help a lot.
Ps. I'm seeing lots of stains from circulation on n the rev & obv

I don't think the double ear can even happen anymore. Am I wrong?

I'm with E&V, especially about quite a few Doubled ears on Lincoln cents coming from Denver since about 2018. Modern Washington quarters also have some doubled ears. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
