Check your 1955 proofs

There is a new discovery of a 1955 proof doubled-die, WDDO-010.

Neat T.
Is it yours?

Unfortunately no, this video is from the YouTube channel CoinOpp -- Robert Lawson discovered the coin recently.

CoinOpp concentrates on Lincoln cent varieties.

I'm not seeing a listing for 010. There is a proof 009 and a business strike 011. Maybe not actually listed yet?

Jon, I saw it listed the day of this thread.
There is some nice Separation on the letters.

If you follow the link there is no listing for 010.

A check again. About halfway down the page.

I see the new 010, it's got some crisp doubling.

Also, I notice they have the stage B of DDO-die-1. Interesting, last I heard there was only one of them. Does anyone know if there are more in that stage? Pretty strange that something as rare as die-1 has a stage B and only one.

It also messes up the published theories (don't ask me where it's from, I forget) but they say that a catch bin was used as the die was first run and it was caught on inspection but the catch bin had overflowed into the daily production and they were behind so they pulled what was caught but some that overflowed were in the days run and to keep on their quota they had to let the days run go with the overflowed DDOs in it.

It seems odd that they would have done a brutal polishing and let more (or only 1) coins (the stage B) get out.

Alright, I'm losing it I guess. Where are you guys seeing this? You have a Pr WDDR-009 listing then next is a header for Pr WDDR-010 but no listing but right under that you have a WDDR-011 listing. The 010 header is there but no listing. This is usually what Wexler does when one is delisted and waiting on a new find to fill it.
