The U.S. did strike cents in 1922, but no other denominations were needed because of low demand due to an economic downturn following WWI.

There have been similar suspensions or reductions during other slow times; e.g look at mintage figures for 1931-1933 at the depth of the Depression. The current 2008-09 slowdown has also caused a reduction in most coin production.

No, only a "D" Mintmark will be on a 1922 Lincoln cent. The Denver Mint was the only Mint to strike Lincoln cents in 1922. Some of the coins were struck with very worn dies that caused the Mintmarks to be weak or completely missing. The coins with missing Mintmarks can be very valuable.

1922 wheat penny?

In 1922 all Lincoln cents were struck at the Denver Mint, the coin should have a "D" mintmark under the date. Some of the coins are missing the mintmark because worn dies and over polishings caused the D not to strike up well or be completely missing from the coin. These coins have a much higher value than the regular 1922-D issue. Many 1922-D Lincolns have had the mintmark removed, the coin should be seen for a accurate value.


What is the value of a 1922 double struck penny?

I'm not familiar with any 1922 cents that were double-struck (*). Could you provide more information? Most commonly a double strike shows two images on the same side of the coin, somewhat out of alignment with each other, or each side has the standard image and the opposite side's image intermixed.(*) FWIW, coins are said to be struck, not "stamped"
