Hello! It's been a while since I didn't post around here

I was organizing a bit my collection, and found this 1955 Lincoln Cent

I notice the last difit has something that looks like a tiny double die, but I am not sure if would make it a 1955 doubled die cent per se

Any opinions?

Thanks

Not "the" 1955 DD but may be a poor mans DD but need to see the whole obverse
(which should always be shown anyway) before I can say for sure.

Die Deterioration issue--know informally as a 'poor man's doubled die'...

Yep, just Die Deterioration Doubling. Not a Doubled Die.

Very common from 1955 worn dies - 1953 dies did the same thing.........
