@scar, first welcome to CCF. Second, no that is not true. All us cents struck with the date of 1958 were wheat cents.

There were more than 252 million 1958-P business strike coins minted, only the DDO is rare

Where did you get that information? It is one of the most common wheat cents.

to the CCF And yes, if you are talking about the 58 DDO, there is only a few in existence. It is the holy grail of coin collectors. A regular 58 is common. So common that you can buy uncirculated rolls for less than $20.00.

Thank you all for your insight. Perhaps I read over the error part. I believe this is the article https://www.prnewswire.com/news-rel...1733887.html

Otherwise I believe mine does have errors but isn't worth much due to being MS 60 if I remember correctly. I'll post pictures once I figure out how to change the file name on my phone.
