1955 Lincoln Cent, MS64 Red
Doubled Die Obverse Guide Book Variety

1955 1C Doubled Die Obverse, FS-101, MS64 Red PCGS. The well-preserved copper-gold surfaces of this impressive Choice example show occasional splashes of deep blue, especially on the obverse, and exhibit sharply detailed design features. A couple of minuscule marks on each side keep the piece from Gem classification. While there are many examples of this famous Guide Book and Cherrypickers variety available in the marketplace, precious few Gems are found with the Red classification. Housed in a green-label holder. PCGS has graded 21 numerically finer Red examples (7/19).
Ex: Houston Signature (Heritage, 12/2008), lot 482; Central States Signature (Heritage, 4/2009), lot 1290.
