Tommyjet Valued Member United States 334 Posts	Posted 01/30/2017 5:11 pm Got this coin through an auction cause the price was right and I loved the look. When up close has that Bugs Bunny look to it. I am most likely wrong but it would be cool if I am right. Thanks to all the members in advance for looking! Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 01/30/2017 5:22 pm Wen I was growing up, this variety was exclusively associated with 1955 examples, but I believe they are now recognized for other years as well. Report this Post to the Staff
Tommyjet Valued Member United States 334 Posts	Posted 01/30/2017 5:23 pm The other question if it is legit how does it affect the value, In the ms64 full bell line state. Report this Post to the Staff
Tommyjet Valued Member United States 334 Posts	Posted 01/30/2017 5:24 pm I agree Coinfrog as most examples I find are of the 55 variety. Report this Post to the Staff
Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 01/30/2017 5:25 pm Yes, 55 is more common but I've seen 54's also. I think it's designated as FS-401 Edited by Mark1959 01/30/2017 5:26 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Tommyjet Valued Member United States 334 Posts	Posted 01/30/2017 6:14 pm Is it worth getting the attribution changed to add the variety? I won the coin for $36 bucks. Report this Post to the Staff

I don't know how much PCGS grading would cost but I see that they are sold PCGS graded 64 for around 100$ give or take. I'm like Barry from Storage Wars and would spend the money just to have it designated as a variety and then keep it! Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 01/30/2017 6:37 pm I probably would too. Report this Post to the Staff

Depends on what you're going to do with it. If I was going to keep it, I probably would. If I was going to sell it for profit, probably not. Nice coin, it's definitely raised.
