1955 Tripled Die Obverse # 1 Very Scarce and Rare low Population ...Check it out !!!!

Howdy;:welcome:



Haven't been on here in a couple of days due to inventoring my collection !!! So I came across this 1955 TDO #1 that I had forgot
that I had in my collection and wanted to share with the community. The 1955 Tripled Die Obverse is very scarce and rare with a low
population but not as valuable or popular as the KING 1955 DDO # 1 which holds the crown with the 1969 s DDO # 1 . I just find
this specimen to be fascinating and mystical as in how this Die could have been created by the master Hub ???? Does anyone
have any knowledge of the Triple Die process please share... Here are the images enjoy !!! 1955 Tripled Die Obverse




Hope you Enjoyed the 1955 TDO # 1

Peace;:hail:

I didn't think so either but thought I'd ask.

The only TDO in this date is a proof, and in my opinion this coin is not a proof.

Wow!

 

That is is so untrue that the 1955 TDO is only in the proof series for I have researched and found that the 1955 TDO is so. In my example you can clearly
see the Motto In God We Trust and in the date 1955 the extra tails under the 1 and the 9 as also the tips of the 5's. Maybe you did not know where to look r what
to look at. Thisis not machine doubling or die deteriation

 

The information came from Coppercoins.com, "A detailed Analysis of Lincoln Cent Varieties by Billy Crawford", The Cherrypicker's guide, "The Authoritative Reference on Lincoln Cents Ed.2 by Wexler and Flynn"

I think I see what you are thinking, that each incidence of "doubling" counts as an extra DDO on the coin. No, it is the number of hub doublings of the whole face of the the coin. In that case it is misconception, if not , then what research are you using?

Oh Boy....................Here we go again.

 

This is a cent with heavy die deterioration doubling. Definitely NOT a tripled die obverse, not even a doubled die obverse. There is no notching present, the coin is was obviously struck by a later stage die, and the doubling takes away from the design rather than add to it. Sorry, this is not a rare coin by any standards.
Keep up the hunt.

 

For some reason, I get the feeling you will never convince the OP of this.

 

I totaly agree with you!

I see some die deterioration... And a couple of little die chips... This is known as the "poor mans doubled die"...
