1955 Lincoln Cent Doubled Die Obverse CAC AU55+ BN

The 1955 Doubled Die Obverse is one of the most famous error coins in all of American numismatics, showing dramatic doubling on the date and lettering visible to the naked eye. This example grades AU55+ Brown by CAC, meaning it retains most of its original detail with only light wear on the high points and has earned CAC’s coveted green sticker indicating it meets their strict quality standards for the grade. A brown designation is typical for circulated examples of this issue, and an AU55+ with a CAC sticker represents a solid, original coin for the grade.
