biokemist6, are those your wheats?

Yep, those are two coins that will never leave my collection They are both lustrous uncirculated beauties, the 1919 is very brassy while the 1927 has some lovely violet toning in the darker areas that did not come out too well in the photo. The mark on the reverse rim of the 1919 is a lamination/planchet flaw related to the poor alloy mix.

Woody cents is one of those things you either love or hate. There is no in-between.

I, for one, love 'em!

I love the woodies! I've been picking some up from around the world... oddly, I don't have a wheat yet though. Now I just have to find time to get some decent photographs of them...
