Is there a specific reason why a penny turns this deep dark red color?

"Well it certainly is deep dark red.
I could be wrong because of the circulation but I see some thickness on the tail of the 9 and possibly the 5 towards the rim (Class 6 doubling?). It is hard to tell if any markers match existing varieties because it gets blurry when I try to enlarge it.
See if you can find any markers at this 1945d 1DO-003 link .

Nice catch Cliff, that would be cool if it were a DDO!

I agree Cliff, I'm also seeing extra thickness on the date, especially the tail of the 9... and the MM looks to be in the correct position to possibly be Coppercoins 1945D-1DO-003.

I'm wondering if that is a die chip on the lower right bottom of the 4? I'm seeing the same thing on VV's Die 010, as well as, comparing CC 003 and VV's 010 some similar die dots/chips around different parts of the date.

This page at Doubleddies.com may help it "click".
There is lots on information (too much for one or even two sittings). Scroll to the end of "Multiple Squeeze Hubbing Era" for links to each Class/type of doubling.
(Bookmark the page and come back to it to refresh the mind when needed.)
Doubleddies.com Class 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ,7 ,8 Doubled Dies LINK .
(I believe Class 9 doubling is used solely by Coppercoins.com for doubling in the single squeeze era.)

It will click Dearing, you are doing all the right things to learn... look at lots of Lincolns, ask questions, and keep learning new things!
Since you are not seeing the die chip in the lower right wheat grains of your coin, there's still a chance that it could be the DD, just an earlier die state before the chip happened. You are finding some real nice looking Lincolns! Once you get your new lens in, then you can go back and look at the ones you have set aside!
