<B>1955 1C Doubled Die Obverse MS64 Red PCGS.</B></I> Though strong doubled dies had appeared on American coinage before the 1955 doubled die cents came to light, few collectors appreciated them. The 1955 pieces, however, were so visually striking and such blatant errors that they fired the imaginations of thousands, numismatists and non-numismatists alike. The coins also inspired collectors to learn more about the minting process, which offered greater insight into collecting other errors and oddities produced by the U.S. Mint.<BR> This entrancing example has pale copper-orange surfaces with subtle pink and rose inflections. The strike is crisp, and the doubling at the obverse peripheral elements is bold as always. An attractive coin that could find a place in the finest of Lincoln cent collections. PCGS has graded a mere 18 finer Red examples (3/08).<BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Victor D.
