<p>[QUOTE=&quot;foundinrolls, post: 463329, member: 4350&quot;]Hi,</p><p><br /></p><p>There is no need to &quot;judge again&quot;.&nbsp; Your coin matches up perfectly to the 1955 cent you posted.</p><p><br /></p><p>Your picture of the &quot;VDB zone&quot; shows three clear marks that are the remnants of the VDB.</p><p><br /></p><p>It is well known amongst experts that the master hubs in the mid fifties were very worn.&nbsp; They produced very mushy master dies and consequently working hubs and working dies that lacked detail.&nbsp; Even an uncirculated 1955 cent looks like mush when compared to cents dated 1909.</p><p><br /></p><p>Coupled with the fact that dies in the mid fifties were used well past when they should have been discarded,&nbsp; we see many uncirculated and worn examples of cents dated in the mid-fifties where the VDB is almost non-existent.</p><p><br /></p><p>The fact that I can pick out a date range from when your coin was struck is not as critical as proving that it is not a 1909 dated piece.&nbsp; Your coin is not dated 1909.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks,</p><p>Bill[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
