NEWmrMatic Valued Member United States 366 Posts	Posted 02/26/2023 7:52 pm I found a 1955 S Wheat penny in pretty decent shape. Any value here? I don't know what errors to look for. Every site has a different value or rarity. Report this Post to the Staff

NEWmrMatic Valued Member United States 366 Posts	Posted 02/26/2023 7:53 pm It so hard for me to get good pics in jpg and below 300kb. I'm sorry it's not a good picture. Report this Post to the Staff
datadragon Pillar of the Community United States 1648 Posts	Posted 02/26/2023 8:03 pm The 1955-S Lincoln Cent is one of the most common issues in Uncirculated grades in the wheat Lincoln Cent series. In circulated grades and up to MS64 they are abundant and usually found in raw condition (ungraded). In grades of MS65-MS66 many are still raw while some have been certified. In MS67 they are one of the more common issues in the series with some examples even being available in MS68. At potential 66+ and up is where it might be worthwhile to consider grading based on its values here after grading https://www.PCGS.com/coinfacts/coin...s-1c-rd/2833 Here are just some things to look for on a 1955-s https://doubleddie.com/809502.html but its the famous 1955 doubled die (no s mint mark on it) that gets the attention https://doubleddie.com/302101.html Edited by datadragon 02/26/2023 8:04 pm Report this Post to the Staff
