Guess the problem.
Post a coin in a holder that didn't make the grade. Let me guess the problem.

Edit to add, I didn't see it to begin with, but when PCGS pointed it out I did.Ken1 -

Negative. It is on the obverse.

Scratch through the date?

@PerryHall You are correct! I didn't see it when I bought it and sent it to PCGS.
I don't think that scratch is a big deal consider the heavily worn condition of your coin. Also, it doesn't appear to be a fresh shiny scratch that really stands out.

Can we also guess why the coin was sent in for grading in the first place? Must have been a PO01 attempt?

Small as it was it didn't stand out to me either, but I need glasses! And it was old scratch anyway. But I guess its a scratch.
I had a "No Cents" in the same order and I thought I would get this one graded at the same time, just for _____ and grins! But it didn't work out that way.

this is where im glad its not a high grade

Great start.

The 55/55 looks cleaned & recolored.

On the 55 DD Lincoln, the luster looks a bit off, so I'll guess Altered Surfaces or Cleaned.

Altered surfaces.

Looks like it's dipped or polished, (unnatural red)

Yep. I only tried once to get it slabbed. I bought this and a Morgan in old dingy capitol holders at a local show. The Morgan looked very similar with blue-ish edge toning. They passed the Morgan and bagged the Peace as AT. I probably should have tried again, instead I sold it as it was for a nice profit. It was quite beautiful in hand.
This is one case where I do not care at all for the tru-view images - my photo's are a better representation of what it looked like.2 -

A recessed date might have saved the date.........
Look how that helped Standing Libs.

The 55 DDO has "smoothed surfaces".

And from the same type album and collection :

Environmental damage. I thought it was typical album toning

Hmmmm, on the reverse under the 2nd T in TWENTY and under ICA in AMERICA? I see them now that I'm looking.

I think the P in PCGS stands for "picky".

Ah. Well it’s an attractive example regardless. 👍

Ha! If that is the one I recall seeing posted here before, they about ran out of room to list it all on the label.
Holed is one.
Room for plenty of more guesses available to be right on that one. Hard to get the right combination of each that fit.
