Lsea789 New Member United States 19 Posts	Posted 09/29/2020 11:22 pm I am still penny roll searching and I came across quite a few 1955 P Lincoln cents, most of which are in very good condition for circulated coins but there are some that look like they have errors. This is one of those Lincoln Cents. It is not the big king double die, but there is doubling taking place on this coin. I am still learning so, all feed back is appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help and guidance. Edited by Lsea789 09/30/2020 12:04 am Report this Post to the Staff

Also,a few too many photos.Need to filter your light source so there is less glare.The better the pics you post,the better we can help you. It takes practice. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/30/2020 2:08 pm Just extreme die wear. You will see a lot of this on the 1950's wheat cents because they continued to use the dies past normal retirement. Creating a lot of stuff that is interesting, but to a variety collector, not a variety. These are die events. Report this Post to the Staff
