ChildOfTheWheat Pillar of the Community United States 5828 Posts	Posted 04/14/2015 7:53 pm Looks like it could be VLDS, AKA poor man's double die and it's not worth any premium over the $0.12 its listed at in the RedBook. Report this Post to the Staff

CS1997 New Member United States 43 Posts	Posted 05/01/2015 01:05 am I think we all dream of finding a true 1955 DDO. A magnifying glass is not needed for that one because it has very pronounced doubling of the date. Report this Post to the Staff

It's a bit more than just the date. Hold one of these in your hand, and simple RPM's....kinda don't matter any more. Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 05/01/2015 2:22 pm But there is more than one 1955 doubled die, so just because a coin doesn't match the coin shown here doesn't mean it can't be a doubled die. When someone asks "is my coin a 55 doubled die?" Don't automatically dismiss it if it doesn't look like the one posted here. Report this Post to the Staff
