Attractive MS64 Red and Brown
1955 Doubled Die Obverse Cent

1955 1C Doubled Die Obverse MS64 Red and Brown PCGS. FS-101, formerly FS-021.8. David Bowers, in his 2008 A Guide Book of Lincoln Cents, writes that: "It is likely that about 3,000 to 4,000 1955 Doubled-Die cents exist." Most Mint State pieces grade between MS60 and MS63. Near-Gems are quite scarce, and higher-grade coins are rare. Gold-orange lustrous surfaces display splashes of blue and purple and are well defined. A few minute marks preclude Gem status.(Registry values: N1793)
