Appraisal Report
The image shows a United States Lincoln cent from 1959. The details provided indicate this is a 1959 double dyed Denver mint penny. While a 1959 penny is fairly common, and condition (wear, scratches, etc.) significantly impacts value, a double-dyed coin is an error coin, which can increase its value. The term "double dyed" is not a standard numismatic term; it likely refers to a doubled die error. However, recognizing specific error types and their impact on value requires detailed examination by a professional numismatist. Without a clearer view of the purported error and expert verification, a precise appraisal is difficult. The base value of a circulated 1959-D penny is low, but if it is a legitimate and significant doubled die error, the value could increase. Based on available information, the value given is a broad estimate for a potential error coin.
