Popular 1955 Doubled Die Obverse Cent, MS64 Brown

1955 1C Doubled Die Obverse MS64 Brown PCGS. CAC. FS-101, formerly FS-021.8. The most famous die error in the series. The date and all obverse lettering are dramatically doubled. Glimpses of orange-gold luster peek through the light to medium brown patination, especially on the obverse. This nicely struck piece reveals just a few unobtrusive marks that deny Gem status. PCGS has seen a mere six higher-grade Brown specimens (6/09).(Registry values: N1793)

Coin Index Numbers: (PCGS# 2825, Greysheet# 2165)

Weight: 3.11 grams
