CENTertainment Valued Member United States 216 Posts	Posted 08/20/2023 12:38 pm I have this Wheat cent in my collection that is in ROUGH shape. In trying to figure out the date, I feel like I can make out a 90, so am guessing it's a 1909. Anyone have any better ideas? Or am I just wishing it into existence so that I can say I own a 1909?

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19265 Posts	Posted 08/20/2023 12:54 pm Suggest beginning with full, large and sharp pics of the obverse and reverse; then, one or two photos of the date, but not so close-in. One image should be taken at a slight angle--not vertical Edited by ijn1944 08/20/2023 12:54 pm Report this Post to the Staff

jpsned Pillar of the Community United States 2220 Posts	Posted 08/20/2023 2:13 pm I agree with ijn1944--a normal-sized obverse photo would help to establish context, and then a not-so-close-up of the date. Report this Post to the Staff
