I was looking through some nickel rolls, when I came across this nickel. Is it real doubling, or is it just worn out?

Looks worn, I dont see any doubleing but its not really close enough to see it either unless its pretty severe.
 
Some of the time the nickle dies will become worn, giving a mushy look to the lettering. That's all it is, not doubling. Sorry.

If there is any doubling it is machine doubling, no real value.

No doubling. It's a beat up slot machine nickel. The lettering has been hammered by other coins hitting it and spreads it out like that.
