Hi All,

I know BIE error coins aren't worth a heck of a lot, but do seem kind of neat to hang on to one if you find one. Found one... I think. My new committee friends :). I've looked at some on e-Bay and other places for comparison, but none seem exactly the same. Insight?

Welcome to the madness, friend. Here's the site I use for "BIE" type errors: http://cuds-on-coins.com/ldb4-1955d/ They categorize these as Lincoln Die Breaks. There are several on the 1955 D cent, but I cannot see yours clearly enough to determine if it's a BIE or something else. Have fun comparing! (And if it's a new one, you can submit pictures and have it added to their catalogue.)

With the new pic, I definitely think it's a "BIE". As far as catalogue number of any kind, I'll give a big

It's a BIE. We would need a closer pic of the area to try and figure out which one or you can look here
