<p>[QUOTE=&quot;foundinrolls, post: 761973, member: 4350&quot;]Hi,</p><p><br /></p><p>The terminology for the 1955 cent would be doubled die, if it were one.&nbsp; It is not.&nbsp; I don&#039;t really see any evidence of a type that appears doubled due to die wear either, which of course is not a doubled die.&nbsp; It is mislabeled and has been for years, a poorman&#039;s doubled die even though there is no die doubling.</p><p><br /></p><p>The worn die gave the last 5 or 55 the appearance of doubling and the coin was hyped as a cheap substitute for a real 1955 Doubled die and it was sold as a way to fill in a hole in a coin album for cheap.</p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately the incorrect name stuck and some people think it&#039;s a doubled die when it is not.</p><p><br /></p><p>The 1944 D cent, has, in my opinion slight potential to be a 1944 D/S as even in the picture you can see what might be the small projection above the D that might indicate the D/S.</p><p><br /></p><p>It is impossible to tell anything for sure though as the picture is too small.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks,</p><p>Bill[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
