Lincoln Wheat Penny Auction Description: A tremendously high grade coin from an old time collection we recently acquired. Here is the famous error key date in dramatic and beautiful condition. The 1955 Doubled Die is justly regarded as one of the most popular 20th century numismatic error coins. Unlike many obscure errors that require a loupe, a Cherrypickers' Guide, and CONECA for identification, the 1955 Doubled Die looks startlingly wrong, even to the unaided eye. Uncirculated examples are seldom seen, regardless of color designation. Most specimens of the issue either show circulation wear, are afflicted with carbon or unattractive color, or show central die cracks from improperly tempered die steel. This charming Gem shows splendid bluish-purple coloration on the obverse, and the reverse is reddish-purple brown. This piece in 62 Brown is one of few so graded at any service.
