Close ups are great but also post a pic of the front and back of the whole coin. Rim shot if that's involved as well.
Can't tell crap from your pics.

Pics are worthless.
I think I see of by his head but do need better pic of the coin..
Hoard the keys.
DoublED die is the correct term. Looks to me like it's been damaged.
Sorry for the crappy pics I'll post better ones in a bit,
Post Mint Damage.

I do see lettering just above his head and then letters above that. As already said, need better pics.

It's a damaged coin, but my question would be how the doubled lettering showed up. If it were somehow a result of being struck twice at the mint, it would be referred to as a double strike, not a doubled die, as the die itself is not doubled. It could also be a faked error. Need a better look at the whole coin, both sides.

I finally got some better pics. I hope they help. I can see OF AM and a little bit of ER, in " United States of America" slightly below and left of it. Unfortunately I found it with the rimshot edge already there.🙁
Your coin is damaged.
looks like pmd to me as well, jmo
Whatever damaged your coin likely created whatever it is that you think you see.
Keep looking,
