Congrats on the submission. That 1998 D shield cent sure does glow.

There is some nice thickness on the reverse initials, like usual,...

The doubling does look promising. Congrats.
(Nice images and the arrows are a plus.)

Nope.
The upsetting mill puts a continuous proto-rim on the type 1 blank.

This would be damage to the coin after it was struck....
