Alright Doug! Welcome as a posting member :)

Thanks for the link. I did briefly check for doubling in other places, but I did not see any. I will give it another look tonight when I get home. If there is any other doubling, it is definitely not as pronounced as what you linked to.

I know that my pics could be a little better as well. I was not really expecting much on this one, but it does look a little funny so I thought I would post it up.

It's called shelf-doubling. Or in this case with the 55, it's known as a "poor man's doubled die." It's worth a little bit.
