I actually found a total of 5 that all have comparable shifts primarily in the second 5 but these made for the best pictures. For some reason these two both appear to have some sort of error in the "LI" in Liberty. It almost appears as if it's instead "IL" with the L reversed. * Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

Nothing special here, since this is very common on the 1955 Wheat Cents. http://www.error-ref.com/die-deteri...on-doubling/ Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
