    A Denver Post newspaper article that my grandfather kept from sometime after 1955,
    along image.jpeg image.jpeg with this 1955 cent. I can see a little doubling on the back side of the 9, and the second 5 looks a little pregnant. I wonder if my grandfather thought this was his ticket for a new car.
