Found this Wheat penny while going through my change. Something just isn't look right and after closer inspection with a very good magnifier I can find no sign of the last t in trust but I cannot find very much information about this kind of error existing

This condition is not considered scarce then, it seems? Thus one should be able to find a sample, eventually, I guess.

I would still keep it. Even though they are saying it isn't that unusual, you certainly don't see that everyday. I am impressed you even got a Wheat penny in your change.

Greasers like this minor one can find with a little looking around. It is the major grease filled coins that can become more valuable as those are more obvious.

It is usually the first 'T' that is rubbed off then the coin finds i's way back into circulation. It it is a Greaser, it is more desirable to the collector if it the first 'T' that is missing due to the slightly comical fun value.
