Double die?

Going trough some old coins I found this. The date is doubled but nothing else on obverse seems to be doubled. Is this worth saving or getting graded even though not the Classic Double die?

No just worthless strike/machine doubling, no value as this is very common.

Never a slave to one plastic brand will I ever be.
The correct terminology is doubled die. The date and the mint mark are doubled -- classic machine doubling.
On ebay you might get some extra value from it.
I did not produce the below image, but have posted it dozens of times on these boards. The piece you have shared is not the valuable doubled die.

Is it double die or doubled die?
Doubled die - Wikipedia
The most popular doubled die variety would be the 1955 US cent doubled die which typically sells for over $1000 at auction. This term is commonly misspelled "double die."
