This coin has had it..... why even try to figure out if it has a mint or not, or if it has a double die? I Wont go there.
My question is, is it worth anything at this point.
Thanks again.

i think it has some coolness value.

it could certainly be a hole filler in a coin album...

it has a couple of cents value - just due to its copper content...

possibly a few cents to another collector...

still a nice find...over 100 yeas old....

Agree, probably not worth more than ten cents.

You could find a 1914 like this--same condition--in a bin at a coin show for 20 cents.

This coin has passed the 100 year old date threshold, but the grade is in below average condition (FR), cutting the value to no more than a few cents.
Still a nice hold filler as mentioned above

It's a 3-cent Wheatie to most people in the collecting community.

Believe, The 1914 D Is the ( Rare ) One with ONLY 1,193,000 minted. The 1914 S Is a ( Semi Key Date ) With 4,137,000 Minted. How do I know this, Its right here on my mouse pad The 1914 P has plenty and they are just early date Wheat cent. Your coin looks to be a P mint mark junker, Spender or copper melt.

Just sayin', I've been to countless coin shows and have seen early teens cents in similar condition in old 2x2s marked to sell for anywhere between 15 cents and a couple bucks. And occasionally, one gets sold for the asking price.

Bottom line, it's whatever the market will bear.

I think a pinch higher that copper melt (it's against the law to melt these anyway), in general, the wholesale value of any Wheatie is 3 cents. That's in bulk numbers.
ça va bien aller
