josephm99 Pillar of the Community United States 791 Posts	Posted 10/14/2016 5:20 pm That is a killer woodie! And I believe it is caused by metal impurities if I am not mistaken. I haven't found many woodies on wheat cents. I seem to always find minor ones around 1980 or so. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/14/2016 8:32 pm The black circular spots on the coin are carbon spots. Something that is a deal breaker for me on a BU coin. But I would call this one a woody. Not pretty as mentioned though. Report this Post to the Staff
Slamnbass Pillar of the Community United States 3644 Posts	Posted 10/14/2016 10:39 pm The ones on a lot of the 80's cents that I think John is referring to are the ones that have perfectly straight parallel black lines Report this Post to the Staff
