Coins and Canada site shows a 1955 cent with double 5's, I have looked through mine and founded all 16 have double 55. But this one has double 955.

Have not been able to find anything about value, but I don't think it's that great, plus the coin is not in the great's shape.

Coins and Canada just says it's doubling nothing about Machine Doubling.

If the coin is not mint state, then there is no real premium for this coin.

If you want a proper catalogue reference, it is a Zoell R79c. They are not common, I am still hunting for one in mint state condition. BU 1955 1-cent rolls are not always cheap though...
