Just a normal circulated cent with corrosion damage. Might be high F or VF details, but the corrosion kills any grade. You're thinking it's a doubled die? Where do you see any doubling?

I see a well circulated and corroded cent. No hint of doubling present that I can tell.

Shows circulation wear and a dose of corrosion. It's possible this could be a 'poor man's doubled die'--if only we could see the last 5 in the date without the corrosion. Suggest googling '1955 poor man's doubled die' (not a true doubled die, just a Die Deterioration artifact).

Not a Doubled Die. Just a normal, circulated and corroded cent. I'll grade it at Fine to VF details.

Are you thinking this is an RPM or a doubled die?

You mention a "d on the rim". Are you thinking this is a D from the Denver mint?

Also, you mention DD in the title. DD usually refers to "Doubled Die", which is contributing to our confusion.
