I thought it was 59....but looks like a legit 55. Damage on the 5 looked like 59 but that would still be a wheat though.

I'm confused. Why do you think it's worth alot? If you think it's the big doubled die for that year it's not.

^^This.

How would a damaged wheatie be worth anything more than one cent? Also why is this in the Coinstar section?

That being said, I think it's a 1955 with some gouging to the 2nd 5.

The only reason I think someone might believe a coin COULD BE higher than the face value would be collectable value.
