Perhaps the most famous of all small cent issues, and a coin that will have you seeing double, will be one of the numerous highlights in our upcoming iAuction. The famous 1955 Doubled Die Obverse Lincoln cent has been searched for in pocket change since its inception, and most of the lucky collectors who actually received a specimen in change back in the mid-‘50s were from the eastern part of New York state.
The present coin is a problem-free deep golden-brown example with a trace of mint red at the obverse rim. The doubling is bold and unmistakable, and the overall eye appeal is substantial for the grade. We feel the grade, AU-58, makes for an enticing blend of quality and value – the cost of a 1955 D.D.O. cent increases dramatically once the Mint State line is crossed.
