Definitely doubling but prices aren't much until MS condition and yours does not look like MS.

Very nice.
The 1979 cent, due to the coin changes that occurred in that year for the cent,
had a large number of striking problems. The date varieties don't seem to have been recognized until recently
along with other double-date varieties like the 1962 nickel & cent.

Hello Falcon .

On your top coin do you have die clashes like hanging ones above the bud across the stem ?

The 1978 and 1979 have many types of doubling I have seen 1,2 and 3 digits doubled.
I have a 1978 doubled 78 and 1978 doubled 978,a 1979 doubled 79 and doubled 979 all in MS65.I would like to get a full date doubled but never seen one yet.
