mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2953 Posts	Posted 01/04/2023 6:01 pm Yeah, interesting to find this in circulation, but for sure a fake as coinfrog has said. Compare this to the real deal 55 DDO and you can see differences. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95087 Posts	Posted 01/04/2023 8:44 pm That looks terrible - on the real doubled die the bust is also doubled, note the arrows on the image I posted.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19127 Posts	Posted 01/04/2023 9:17 pm Yes, as noted above, it's a fake--a rather weak one at that. Hold onto it as a cool curiosity. Report this Post to the Staff

User1975 Valued Member United Kingdom 228 Posts	Posted 03/01/2023 12:50 pm I'll say it's a terrible fake coin, not even close the the 55 DDO. On the real coin the eyelid is doubled.it doesn't even look like Lincoln lol, nice coin to keep as a pleasurable thing to look at. Love Alun Report this Post to the Staff
