Looks like the result of a nice, low angle hit from NE to SW. Note the pushed metal. Not an error--didn't leave the striking chamber this way.
Full coin photos may show other interesting things which are often found on '55 Philly wheat cents.

Note the area that looks like pushed snow in the winter. That is where is left from that area. The coin was normal when it was struck, but it looks like the snowplow spotted it and moved it. This is not a coin striking error. If that area is the only area affected, it may have been deliberate. No premium for a damaged coin. (not even it is was caused by Machine Doubling) First time I've seen this, but it not a good look for Abe. Edited by coop

Too many photos. As mentioned, PMD. The metal has been moved into a clump. |

One photo of the entire front (obverse) of the coin, then one of the reverse (entire coin) then one or two, maybe maybe three photos of the area in question is all this is needed. Make each coin as large as permitted, and please make sure your photos are sharp, in focus for us. Better images means better assistance from us. Thank you.  |
