1914 no mint mark

[CarolinaGent]

I looked through variety vista and every where and found nothing on a DDO for this 1914. I’m pretty sure it’s a DDO can anyone enlighten me please

In my opinion, the date looks like die deterioration. It's not at the same height. It the speed was that wide, it would have been evident on all numbers in the date. I suggest looking at the 1917 doubled die for a comparison. I like you to eagle eye the 9 and 7 in the date.

See how they are almost at the same height ?

The other photos I think I see some pitting on the coin.
I am not sure if this was in the ground or exposed to weather.
It might have been for a short period of time.

I agree with Gary that this is from die deterioration.

The coin was struck by a late die-state (LDS) die. Maybe even a Very late die-state (VLDS).
