Looks like Machine Doubling. The devices are pushed to the east on this coin. If you had several from this run in an OBW roll, then you would see that it varies from strike to strike. A real doubled die has the doubling on the die, not caused by the strike, but can also be affected by Machine Doubling.
Cents from a OBW roll with different doubling from coin to coin. You can see the same markers on each coin:

Machine doubled variety (RPM east inside mint mark.)

If you examine the surface of the coin's field around the letters, you would see the appearance that indicates a worn die. Most of what is on this coin is the result of Die Deterioration. We call it Die Deterioration Doubling. Like Machine Doubling, Die Deterioration detracts from the coin and does not add any value to it.

Thanks,
Bill
