Baby_Lokz New Member United States 42 Posts	Posted 09/09/2018 03:41 am I know that there wasn't a proof coin made for this year... but no matter how much I look at this coin, it looks to me like it's a proof. Could this be a 1944 proof Wheat penny? Any thoughts, and could it be worth more than just face value? Report this Post to the Staff
