1955 Wheat

Hi guys,

Just got back from the show. I paid $3 for what looked to be an un-searched roll. I know AZ Jack had already been there so I figured what the heck.

Anyways, the roll has several pre 1919 coins and a few 1910 and 1911.

I am curious though, what you think of this 1955.




I'm not much of a Lincoln guy, so I am hoping some of you might know if this is just wear or an error.

Looks like a poor man's DD to me - and a very weakly struck coin at that.

 

Yeah, a die abrasion doubled last 5, and weak strike/worn die look to it. Hard to judge color with the blue background as well.

Thats what they call the 55 PMDD

 

Ok thanks. So nothing to get to excited about I guess.

 

As my wife says :Better than sitting on a tack:

Thanks

That's funny.

 

The strike wasn't particularly weak. Instead, it shows severe die deterioration.
