    Looks like die erosion coupled with mechanical doubling.

    On the double die photo, doubling is clearly in one direction and distinct.

    Note the doubling on opposite sides of "O" in "GOD" and blurring on example in question.

    Zinc 1982 penny, worth 1¢ is what I'm seeing.

    Einstein’s view of God was non-traditional and pantheistic, focusing on the harmony, order, and intelligibility of the cosmos rather than a personal deity. His quotes reveal a profound respect for the universe’s mysteries, a belief in rational laws, and a moral philosophy grounded in compassion and understanding, bridging science and spirituality.

    “My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble mind.”

    Albert Einstein (14 March 1879--18 April 1955)

    The doubling looks flattened to me... I'd have to go with the machine doubling.
