Hi, I found this Lincoln and there's some kind of doubling going on in the obverse, what do you all think? Machine Doubling?
Thanks.

Another picture. I know they aren't great but I hope they're enough to see what's going on.

Looks like Machine Doubling to me but I am also still learning.

Looks like Machine Doubling. The letters are not wider, they are just damaged during the strike.

Here is a normal 1982 and a 1982 Doubled die with images side by side. See if this helps to see that the devices are affected by making them wider/taller.
