I have a 1964 penny that appears to have doubling on the reverse. Any help is appreciated.

Definitely Mechanical doubling ( aka machine, strike doubling).

Here is a way to find immediate answers when finding something you suspect is a doubled die, RPM, or OMM:
Please click the following link:

Immediate Answers - How to find your Doubled Die or RPM online

Note:
If you do not find your coin listed using this easy method, then you most likely have a damaged coin or other issues like (non collectable) machine doubling, die deterioration doubling, etc. (look these up at error-ref.com)

Does mechanical doubling change the value any?

I agree, common occurrence during the minting process, no additional value.
