Marv65 Bedrock of the Community United States 10601 Posts	Posted 02/09/2024 2:24 pm Found this one while roll searching. A 1955 "Poor Man's" Doubled Die from Die Deterioration and looks like this die was also starting to shatter by the looks of Lincoln's head. Too bad about the staining but a cool looking cent otherwise....... Report this Post to the Staff
