I am Brand New here and trying to figure out what I Have? It is a 1917 Lincoln Wheat penny with very curious stripes- I've read where it could be a WOODY? or a Proof? Any Help is appreciated. My Pictures are too high resolution to upload here properly- I'll take some new ones at a lower quality if needed.

Looks like a woody, an ugly one at that. We'll need better pictures showing the whole coin, obverse and reverse, to tell if it is proof.

 Yes, that is indeed a Woody and in pretty decent shape considering it is now 100 years Old

Cant remember who, but one CCF member is collecting just woodies for his wheat set, an interesting and very hard set to complete!
