I recently found two pennies from 1955. After looking at them very closely for a while I noticed that the denticles were different sizes and that the I in the phrase "del" we're different shapes on the two coins. If I could get some clarification on if there's a difference In the two coins it would be great.

Both are 1955 SF coins, just in different stages of working die (or working punch) deterioration. The 1955 NSF coins have the I in DEI point in between the denticles, whereas the SF versions the I points to a denticle.
