Not seeing any doubling in these pictures. I see an over polished die issue, but that's it. https://www.error-ref.com/thinning-...gn-elements/

Not even seeing MD - possible "light reflection" doubling.

Looks like a normal cent - but in the future Crop your images to show only the coin and not the background.

You can pick up a cheap clip-on microscope for $10-15. Below is the model that I use. All you need to examine most coins is that little plastic scope and an LED flashlight wrapped in tissue.
