It appears that my 1955 penney was stamped with a "P" and then stamped over with a "D". Does this type of error increase the value at all?

After 1945, there 'P' mintmark was not used until 1980 on all other denominations, except of Cents. So it would be impossible to be a 'D' over a 'P' on a cent. Report this Post to the Staff

Greasy Fingers Pillar of the Community United States 7036 Posts	Posted 07/12/2021 5:10 pm With maybe 30+ years of circulation, the mint mark has taken a hard hit causing what you see as a P over D,but it's just PMD. Report this Post to the Staff
