Here is a photo of the obverse and the reverse of my latest pickup. It is my fourth and final Lincoln Cent in my type set. I will not be doing the modern cents for now, but that may change later. Take a look and let me know what you think.
As always thanks for looking.

Huge coin.
Thanks very much for the nice comments, it's always appreciated.
It is one of my favorites. I've always liked the 1955 Double Die since the first time I saw one, 30+ years ago.

Quite a looker!
Awesome
I'm glad to see you with that coin.
That's a nice coin
I love it, still a coin I want to own someday but too chicken to fork out the money for......maybe should just go ahead and do it!
Many members on this forum that now it cannot fit in my signature. Please ask for entire list.
Such a neat look. Congrats

My favorite variety!
1947-P & D; 1948-D; 1949-P & S; 1950-D & S; and 1952-S.
Any help locating any of these OBW rolls would be gratefully appreciated!

My digital cameo album 1950-64 Cameos - take a look!
Considering it's popularity the 1955 DDO was a more difficult coin to locate than I thought. Many of the ones I looked at had spots on them or other marks that were distracting. I feel lucky having found this one.
Thanks again for the kind words.

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......
Once I get enough coins in my collection, I may end up having someone photograph them for me.
Thanks for all the kind words.
