at first I noticed the D mintmark was all filled in, not sure if that is common or not, so I took a picture and blew it up and when I did I noticed doubling on the date you can see a definite doubling on the 9 and the 6 in 1968, can you see it? Is this a legit error coin?

I have found several with filled in mintmarks. I'm pretty sure that their die chips.
As for the doubling, I can't really tell much about it...but its probably machine doubling.

While it looks like strike doubling to me, it's hard to tell from scans.

Please post your pic in the error forums over at cointalk.org,
you will get a much better response.
