Recently came across this Wheat cent thinking at first glance it was a Greaser. A closer look showed a thin planchet uneven at opposite points.
It was found to weigh 2.38g. Diameter is 18.9mm. Thinnest edge is .56mm. Widest edge is 1.17mm.
Comparison of edges is to an UNC 1956. What are your thoughts?

Sure looks tapered. Although the top coin also has an uneven rim. Good eye and nice find! =)

Trace of a die crack on Lincolns head too. I'm thinking a '53 or '55...
