There's a large number of coin collectors that do not collect Lincoln Cents or any copper at all, but they'll still seek out a 1909-S VDB and/or a 1955 DDO for their collections just because it was a coin they always heard about and/or always dreamed about finding and owning as a kid.</p><p><br /></p><p>It's a cool coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>We even used the 55/55 from the 1955 DDO cent on the reverse of our Coin Club medal that we're having made for our club's 55th anniversary.

[QUOTE="illini420, post: 1878891, member: 19423"]Just like the 1909-S VDB, most folks that have been exposed to coin collecting at all know about the 1955 DDO and most of those folks think it's cool. There's a large number of coin collectors that do not collect Lincoln Cents or any copper at all, but they'll still seek out a 1909-S VDB and/or a 1955 DDO for their collections just because it was a coin they always heard about and/or always dreamed about finding and owning as a kid. It's a cool coin. We even used the 55/55 from the 1955 DDO cent on the reverse of our Coin Club medal that we're having made for our club's 55th anniversary. Should have the medals by the end of the month and can't wait to see them!
