Hi folks I am pretty new to the coin collecting thing. I was going through a bunch of pennys and found this 1955 penny. I don't think it is NSF but am asking the wise folks here. Hopefully the picture turns out this is my firts time posting a photo here.

Its def. a 1955 SF the key is looking at the I in DEI. With the NSF it has a flare and point in between the denticles. The SF doesn't have the flare and points to a denticle as it does in the photo above.

thanks I was pretty sure that was the case but wanted somebody else's opinion. I am pretty new at this. Up until a couple of days ago I had not even heard about a 1955 NSF. Cheers
Rest in Peace

Here is a good diagram of what to look for. Check the "I" in "DEI" on the Obverse.
