The doubling around the date is a form of deteriorated die doubling that is common to cents minted after 1982. It is more poor quality control than anything else, and adds no numismatic value to the coin. The split in the coating is called Split-plate doubling (imagine that!) and is also the result of the post-1982 cents being made of copper plated zinc. Your coin is worth one cent, so would not be a good candidate for grading.

Welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forum!

I agree with @Just Bob. Die erosion doubling and the plating issues common to cents of the time period from roughly 1982-1999. I see no errors on your coin. This coin is not worth submitting.

So what about the uh broad stamp I believe it's called? It has a double...rim? Lip? See it?

   Welcome to the NGC chat board.  In the future, please post cropped photos of the entire obverse and reverse of a coin about which you have questions.

   The "doubled" area of the rim on your 1991-D cent is likely from a slightly misaligned obverse die that struck the coin at a slight angle.  This is also very common, not valued by knowledgeable collectors, and considered a quality control issue rather than a mint error. I concur with those who have previously responded regarding the other issues you raised.  NGC would not attribute either of these coins as a mint error. If you submitted them, you would be spending $37 per coin in grading and attribution fees, plus the $10 per order processing fee and shipping and insurance costs to encapsulate coins worth face value.

Thought I would share this LWC for the sake of education.

This is Extreme worthless MD (machine doubling) with a worthless die chip in the 9 of 19.

Not errors. 99% or more of what error treasure hunters THINK are errors are NOT errors. YouTube is a cesspool of bad information. Stop looking at YouTube coin videos.

Haven't looked at you tube once. Just pictures on here and other sites. I'm taking pictures with my cell phone...let me tell you how big of pain that is! Asking more to see if I'm on the right track. I also have some 1940's some 82 copper large dates. A zinc 82 small date. Nothing amazing really.

I do not need convincing of that. I never get anything useful from my cell phone either. I gave up trying. And I steadfastly REFUSE to add junky closeup lenses onto my phone. More bad optics solves nothing.
