1995 (P) Lincoln Memorial Cent - Doubled Die Reverse WDDR-005

Description

The 1995 WDDR-005 Lincoln Memorial Cent carries the CONECA classification I-R-VIII, identifying it as the first die cataloged with a Class VIII reverse doubled die for this date. Class VIII doubling, also known as tilted hub doubling, results from the hub being tilted relative to the die during the hubbing process, producing a spread that varies in width across the design. While the 1995 obverse doubled die commands significant premiums and public attention, reverse doubled dies from the same year represent overlooked opportunities for variety collectors building comprehensive date sets.
