Hello Forum first time posting here. New to coin collecting, I have a coin collection I inherited and ran across this 1938 Wheat penny. Not sure if it is worth anything other than it being interesting. Please let me know your thoughts.

Its a nice looking coin, and it appears to have a lamination issue on the reverse from about 2:45 to 8:00.

Quite the coast-to-coast lamination. Nice find.

@nickg, first welcome to CCF. Second, I agree with the others that you have a very nice example of a lamination on the rev. Definitely worth putting into a 2x2 for safekeeping.
