I couldn’t find much on rpm or double die for this coin. Are these double die errors?

No. Strike doubling, and very minor at that.
Flat and shelf-like are your clues. On a coin that old it’s unlikely that there’s a notable doubled die that has escaped notice.
@Dstnfx .... Welcome aboard. No, that is not a doubled die. It is 'machine' or 'shelf' doubling and of no numismatic value. Cheers, RickO
Agree - just minor machine doubling. Do yourself a favor and ease off of the magnification or else you will be finding all kinds of things that turn out to be nothing.

Is this something more of what I’m looking for?
No, clearly a shelf like machine doubling. You can see what real doubling looks like here:
