<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bob Evancho, post: 4992055, member: 84595&quot;]AS Quoted &quot;One of the main diagnostics of a genuine 1955 Doubled Die cent can be seen on the reverse of the coin. Since there was only one pair of dies used to create the 1955 Doubled Dies, all genuine examples should display vertical die polishing lines to the left of the letter T in ONE CENT&quot;.&nbsp; You could check out the PCGS Coin Facts at: <a href="https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin/1955-1c-doubled-die-obverse-bn/2825#:~:text=One%20of%20the%20main%20diagnostics%20of%20a%20genuine,CENT.%20Authentication%20is%20strongly%20recommended%20for%20this%20variety" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin/1955-1c-doubled-die-obverse-bn/2825#:~:text=One%20of%20the%20main%20diagnostics%20of%20a%20genuine,CENT.%20Authentication%20is%20strongly%20recommended%20for%20this%20variety" rel="nofollow">https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin/1955-1c-doubled-die-obverse-bn/2825#:~:text=One of the main diagnostics of a genuine,CENT. Authentication is strongly recommended for this variety</a>.&nbsp; I was at a flea market and a small coin dealer had a blue folder of cents from 1941 to 1965.&nbsp; $7 was the price.&nbsp; I noticed the 55/55 slot had a coin in it and figured it was a last 5 shift or fake.&nbsp; Not to arouse interest, I bought the book for the $7.&nbsp; I turned the corner to another row, took out the cent and there were the die polishing marks near the T of CENT.&nbsp; Sent it out and came back AU 50.&nbsp; Sold it back then for $1250.&nbsp; I already have one in my collection.&nbsp; Happy coin collecting and hunting.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
