YoshiRules Pillar of the Community United States 602 Posts	Posted 01/23/2015 11:03 am This is a "woody" penny, as shown by the back. There is nothing wrong with it, but it is just that the metals in the coin didn't mix properly (or something like that, I am not an expert). Report this Post to the Staff
Celticsoul Pillar of the Community United States 1566 Posts	Posted 01/23/2015 2:29 pm You're right Yoshi, the wood grain tone happens when the base metals don't mix properly and the different properties of the metal tone at different rates. You'll see this a lot on Indian Head cents too. Report this Post to the Staff

SHAFTA9a Bedrock of the Community Canada 10743 Posts	Posted 01/23/2015 4:01 pm There is nothing wrong with this coin noD, actually, it's a very nice 'woody' looking like it may be an AU-50 may even be higher in hand. If you don't want it you can send it to me I need an upgrade.. Edited by SHAFTA9a 01/23/2015 4:03 pm Report this Post to the Staff

BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19948 Posts	Posted 01/24/2015 12:15 am Looks good to me! These are tough to find with a full strike and in earlier die states....I'd call it the early part of a middle die state. Looking at the last 2 and the weakness in the D, the obverse die could have been the one that struck the infamous no D....who knows? AU-55 but... it might slide to MS-62. Look at PCGS photograde, tell me what you think? Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff
