    @certainteed

    Compare to what is listed here:

    http://varietyvista.com/01a LC Doubled Dies Vol 1/DDO 1955.htm

    Using “L” for Lincoln cent not a good idea because there is another cent with “L”.

    Enjoy!

    Yes, "LC" is usually the shorthand for Large Cent...

    Is that wrapping machine damage or is just the lighting on the right and bottom of the coin?

    I was lucky enough to cherrypick one from a jar search. I do not believe yours is the DDO-2
    Here is what the coin looks like in the raw

    Some coins are just plain "Interesting"

    Hey certainteed,
    Look right above your avatar in your last post and see that word GOD from IN GOD WE TRUST on the Lincoln cent.
    Yup the one I posted right above your name.
    Notice how the work GOD is showing nice doubling ?
    Now look at that same word on the coin you posted and notice how the word lacks the doubling?

    Does the word GOD on your coin show that exact same doubling?
    If it does you got a winner, if it doesn't you don't.

    Some coins are just plain "Interesting"

    Man, I miss @Hemispherical
    Always informative, stuck to the facts, and was never personal in their responses.
    Wherever they are, I hope they are doing well.

    We were all afraid to say anything. We weren't sure how you'd take it.
