The 1955 Lincoln Cent Doubled Die Obverse stands as one of the most dramatic and well-known mint errors in the history of American coinage. Produced at the Philadelphia Mint, a small number of cents were struck with a die that had been improperly hubbed, resulting in a spectacular doubling effect clearly visible to the naked eye on the date and lettering of the obverse. This Doubled Die Obverse includes an MS64 grade from the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS), with authentication by the Certified Acceptance Corporation (CAC). Now, the 1955 Lincoln Cent with a Doubled Die Obverse is available online from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
These 1955 Lincoln Cent Coins come with an MS64 grade, indicating average mint luster with several small contact marks in a group. The BN designation is unique to copper coins and reflects the presence of 5% to 15% of the original red copper appearance. The Doubled Die Obverse error on this coin is evident on the date mark, as well as the obverse inscriptions. In addition to the MS64 grade, the CAC has assessed the coin and authenticated it as an outstanding example of an MS64 specimen.
The obverse of the 1955 Lincoln Cent follows the standard Wheat Cent design, with Lincoln’s portrait facing right. On the reverse of the 1955 Lincoln Cent Coin remains the standard Wheat Cent design, showing the twin wheat ears framing the denomination and nation of issue.
Estimates suggest that approximately 20,000 to 24,000 of these error coins entered circulation before the mistake was discovered, and because they were mixed with normal cents rather than destroyed, they reached the public largely unannounced. This makes every find in pocket change a small treasure. Today, the 1955 Doubled Die is a staple of advanced collections and a perennial favorite among error coin enthusiasts.
