Huh?
Are you reffering to the ear?

Looks good to me.

 

Yes

 

Looks good to me. Cent on the left..

 

Well good for you, I guess we’ll take your word on it. Clearer pictures wouldn’t hurt none if you want an opinion.

 

Thanks for that link, forgot about the 1988. Would you give $10 for this?

 

Oh, the ear! It’s clear, you got it. That’s a hard one to find, too, so congrats.

 

Looks good for DDO-001 check the reverse die markers because VV only has the early die stage listed

congrats!

I've been looking for one for years

 

So have I.
I finally broke down and bought one.

This one is actually double ear, chin, and beard. This is the only picture I have.
EDIT : BTW, I gave $49.00 +S/H for mine. So AmberLarry, I'm thinking that since yours is so clearly doubled, that it would be worth about the same.
Bear in mind, that I am neither a coin expert nor a coin appraiser, so take my opinion as just that, an opinion.

 

Congrats on the find. Looks like the real thing to me. They are still out there.

 

Nice find!!!!! Thanks for sharing!

 

Oh man, this is my white whale of CRH. Congrats!

 

What a great find!! Maybe you should buy a lottery ticket! LOL

 

That is a heckuva find!

 

post the picture as full size, otherwise we can't enlarge it to see the detail

 

after searching 26 pounds of LWC, I have not found a 1955 DDO . Good find and good eye.

 

Wow, good eye, great find. Thanks for sharing it.

 

I found one in my wife's purse in 1984 when they were first publicized. The word was that some had been found in Jackson, Miss., which is not far from where we live. Anyway, I sent it to a certification service, PCI I think, back when PCI was a legitimate service. Back it came graded MS64 Red. Anyway, I kept it for years before deciding to part with it. I took it to a big summer ANA convention and no one was interested. I finally talked to an error dealer, and he told me to watch for bubbles in the copper coating, that it was a sign that it was developing a major problem. I used my loupe, saw the bubbles on the obverse, and decided it was time to let it go for sure. I offered it to some guys at SilverTowne, and they said they would give me $10 for it, which was a small fraction of its Greysheet value at the time ($200, maybe?). I got them up to $65, took the offer and never looked back. Be glad you're in it for 1c like I was.
