Description
1955 Cent, MS65 Red and Brown
FS-101, Doubled Die Obverse
A Rarity in Gem Condition
1955 1C Doubled Die Obverse, FS-101, MS65 Red and Brown NGC.
The 1955 Doubled Die Lincoln cent is usually plentiful, although
Mint State coins mostly grade no finer than MS64, regardless of
color designation. Gems are rare, whether Brown or Red and Brown.
The current Gem Red and Brown piece displays satiny luster that is
pleasantly devoid of obvious carbon spots. Even abrasions are
absent, allowing the eye appeal to be exceptionally strong.
Original golden-copper luster glows in the protected portions of
the fields, while hints of lavender and plum appear in the
reddish-brown overtones of the devices and open fields. Among the
100 Greatest U.S. Coins.Coin Index Numbers: (Variety PCGS# 37911, Base PCGS# 2826, Greysheet# 310753)
