Good morning. Please identify what parts of the coin you are focusing on i.e motto, date, LIBERTY, mintmark, etc...), and describe why you think it might be a variety coin (i.e. doubling, etc...). This is the only way people can try to respond to your inquiry. Specifics are very important.
In any event, it may be a tad difficult to respond since the pics are somewhat blurry and dark. I know it is hard to photograph coins, so don't feel bad. It's just that sometimes a coin has to be attributed directly when pics do not provide sufficient clarity.
Coppercoins has done a great job of providing a forum for helping folks with their photo techniques. I recommend you peruse that for some direction, as well.
keep looking

Carol,
Some of those older years normaly look (my description LOl) sort of bold but lacking detail so they might have a bold bust and motto (compared to any new cents) but have mushy details and lack details like like the wheat lines so even the normal ones can look odd.
You might look at the spines of the letters like the BE on your coin, see if they look curved. If they look curved it might be DDO. Also look at the lower bar of E of WE to see if it has a little ramp on it. Those are signs of being a class 6 ddo.
