1926 wheat not really asking a certain question just mainly just wanting to learn more about my coins and coins I dont know much about it new to this so maybe I can get all the answers I need by putting it on here
Mintage on the 1926-P is quite high at 157,088,000. In that era, most (not all) of the Philadelphia (P) Lincoln Wheat Cents had higher mintages than those struck at Denver (D) and San Francisco (S) mints. For example, mintage of the 1926-D was 28,020,000, and that of the 1926-S was 4,550,000; thus, the D- and S-mint cents from that year are more desirable to collectors.
In time you might want to learn about varieties and errors. There's a lot of info in that area, but sometimes what looks like a problem with the coin can add value. Often it does not. So, being here helps us learn from one another as you presumed. Welcome!
i would grade the coin in the F12 area. the coin most likely would not grade straight with the dig on the shoulder. its deep and displacing metal or at least appears that way in the photo. the coin appears to be all original and never cleaned. the overall brown color is consistent on both sides which is desirable for LWC's
