I guess that was because I clicked it in the quote. I clicked it in Halo's reply and it looks like 15 with a later die stage and wear on your coin. Maybe you could do a side x side.

How is this  edit: It's not actually as ugly as it looks, using the USB camera really makes it look pretty nasty. It has some really nice luster to it and it is Red/Brn - the mushy devices from die wear doesn't help it  .

Nice find. I might have disregarded that coin as a very worn die. You have a good eye. The 1955 LWCs are interesting coins.

Thanks scurry. I love searching the 55's probably like most of us. I usually wait until I get a bunch and go through them all at once. Makes it easier to spot the variety or errors that way.

FYI, it shows a cross reference with SKH-1c-1955-03 as well. Thanks, Doug. http://cuds-on-coins.com/lincoln-ce...s-1950-1959/Adding a few IDB listings have switched categories. Wondering if it could've been listed as one of them at one time? IDB-1c-1955-06 Open ID switched to a different category. IDB-1c-1955-07 Open ID switched to a different category. IDB-1c-1955-08 Open ID switched to a different category.

Doug I was so excited about the Retained Cud that I forgot to look at the other stuff. Thanks!! Any thought on a grade for it? Don't know if my pics are good enough for that, but just an idea.

It could have been, maybe I'll ask JC why they don't reference the new listing number.

You can find out what it is worth by checking ebay on Friday. I put one of these up for auction last week. Also, on my coin and the one on COC you will find a rim Cud on the obverse. I talked to JC about it and he is looking into it. OP's coin seems like earlier die stage without the rim Cud. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1955-Lincol...STRK:MESE:IT

Thanks, I appreciate that info. I double checked my coin just in case I missed it - No Rim Cud. So now I am really curious what is going on with that area above the D in GOD? I thought it had taken a hit there - but all of our coins have it. 3rd pic from the top has a good closeup of it.

It is my impression that above the D is where the die crack takes a somewhat odd turn and appears as a diagonal angling in to the rim towards the Cud instead of the more normal angling away from the Cud.

@tropicalbats - It makes no sense - I assumed damage. But, on the other hand this is my first Retained Cud. Let me know what JC says as far as die stage. I did email him myself yesterday asking him to look at the post to see if it was an RIDB candidate. @OldMike - Thanks - kind of gets your blood pumping when something special comes along - probably only about 10 bucks worth - but, this is a great one for me.
