Owner Comments:

This is the first coin purchased for my certified lincoln cent set.

I picked this coin up because the 1955-S has significance to me personally. I made a set of Lincoln cents in some H.E. Harris folders and I was able to find every coin for 1940 to 2006 by going though lots of pennies but I never found a 1955-S until long after I'd found everything else. I searched through over 40,000 pennies to fill up that book.

This coin also has a very slight, fairly common die crack error on the reverse.
