TJB17 Came the closest.

On this forgery the face diameter of the die is shrunk a bit and the it results in a larger space between the lettering and the upset rim all around. It is most noticeable at the L in liberty which was conveniently truncated and under Lincoln's bust.

Other comments were also good - like the fact the coin survived with just the doubled parts left clear. Strange.

Anyway - good thoughts all around.

When I saw them together, the thing that sticks out the most to me is the wrong 1955 is on top of the other...
