Been too busy to post much, but this one was quick and easy so here is a fairly nice tapered planchet. The most common dates for these are 1955 and 1952, so by going through 13 rolls of 1955 cents it's not unreasonable I'd find one. Nothing else of note in there but a pair of lower grade DDO-003 coins.

Thanks all for the kind comments! I see a lot of minor tapered planchets but this one really just has a great look to it.

What I find the most unusual is the rim height. Most of the time, the rims are not an high.
