Hello. I’m wondering if this penny is Doubled in the obverse. On the 1955 date, and on Lincoln’s nose mouth and chin? Also when I get home from work I will add photos of the in god we trust I thought I had taken photos of that, but I didn’t. Thank you
Since I only see a portion of the coin obverse, I suspect it is a die deterioration doubling event and of 1 cent value. The "ST" of the "TRUST" and the last of the date indicates that. Jim
@David Handlin Here is some great information on the subject - 1955 Poor Man's Doubled Die (lincolncentresource.com)
I remember the 1955 craze but I caught it in the mid 60’s. I ain’t that old yet. Thanks paddy !!! Been awhile since I’ve saw one
Only the last 5 is doubled and it’s known as a Poor Man’s Doubled Die. It’s double from a tired worn die so not a true doubled die.
