I think answered this (too tired and lazy to look through all the previous pages - all 2 of them) So, I'll say I like the Wheat back version the most.

I like the Reverse Proof Shield I do like how they look.  I have two. One from the 2018 Reverse Proof Set (50th Anniversary of San Francisco minting proofs) and another (2019-W) came as a bonus with the 2019 silver proof set from the Mint. |

That's good to know about the 2009s Too bad they didn't do the same thing for the 2018-S Reverse Proofs and 2019-W Reverse Proofs? It will be interesting to see how they hold up |

I don't understand why "Proof" pennies are not struck in copper I agree. I suppose they do not want the potential for having coins struck on the wrong planchets. My solution is to KILL the CENT from circulation and tell Artazn to get bent. The Mint will then only create BRONZE NIFC cents and make them available in sets, bags, and rolls.  |
