2012 D Sheild cent.

[PetesPockets55]

Ok so ive been looking over many more cents minted withen 2010-2017 and have seen this exact "doubling effect" taking place on some.. Ken potter had told me it was not doubled but a different issue i think he said with the plating (cant remember). But I think he is correct because the more I look the more I'm finding this way. Wexler had some listed similar to this but had later removed them Is what he said.

You wont find me going toe to toe with Ken Potter because I'm a relative novice. Did he get a chance to look at it in hand?

As we always say, it's tough to make a determination from images alone. Light reflection can play tricks on the eyes.
But I'm stubborn and probably would send it to some one with the weight to make that determination from an in hand look.
Let us know what you find out if you send it in.

Only through photos. But i have found similar looking ones in 2017 D cents as well. Not as spread as this one but definitely the same effect. Ill try to see what I can find out out about it. Ill update soon.

Yes, in 2017 the Denver mint had a lot of thicker than normal devices for some reason on the reverse.
But yours is 5 years prior and on the obverse.
John Wexler is really straining under the volume of submissions and attribution requests he received this new year, as well as emails, so it may take a while for him to catch up.
Best of luck whichever avenue you pursue

Unsure, the device I use doesn't really tell the magnification.
