Lot 1434
1955. Doubled die obverse. ICG graded MS-65 Red & Brown. Nearly full Mint Red, at least 75% (if not more) remains. Most 1955 Double Die Cents have toned down to a brown color, and finding anything with better than 50% Red is a real challenge. This variety was discovered at the Mint in a larger batch of coins. Rather than destroy the entire batch, the coins were released into circulation. As a result, Gems are very rare, since the variety was not even reported to collectors until January 1956! Estimated Value $5,500 - 6,000
