    Error CUD | Four error coins in the same roll. Two retained cuds and two die chips.

    On Saturday I found a very nice die break 1952 penny while searching bank rolls. Today I opened up a very old roll of 1955-S pennies that I have had since I was a kid and made my best single roll search discovery ever. Two retained cud errors and two die chip errors! I’m sure that I didn’t purposely save them at the time because in the 1960’s I knew zero about error coins. (Actually I’m just beginning to learn about them, thanks to all the knowledgeable people here) Anyway, it really made my day.

    Very cool finds!! The two you have with the chips in the 5 look like they could be from the same die. The mm looks to be in the same location and chips look to be the same too. It's very cool you've had these since you were a kid.

      Fun finds.
      I remember when those 55-S cents were sort of the key to to 41-58 folders, everything else was easier to find in circulation.

        Yes they were, that's why I saved them when I found them. Did not have the money as a kid to save all of them so I kept "S" mints and pennies below 1940.

              Yes indeed a nice set of finds.
              And you're right about any S mints on the east coast of Fl. Hardly ever saw them.

                  Cool... Your 10R looks to be an earlier die state of the listed sample... The crack on yours does not appear to extend above the S of states!!!
