    Would it be fair to call this a poor man's double die? Or just a standard 1955 strike?

    I don't think so, George. I think it would be unfair. It's just a little strike-doubling on a cent-issue that has a major doubled die error to its credit.

    The 1955 poor man's doubled die is not a real doubled die. It is caused by die deterioration doubling. Actually the poor man is a group of several highly used dies.
