I do not know if this has value. I think it does. Need opinion on what to do. Need advice.The 1950_ is not a looker at all. Would be hard to grade.

I don't think so. That just looks like a penny that has seen too much. Lincoln's eyes seem to have that far away look that tells that he's been through some %#@$

Looks like its been in the ground too long and the acidic soil started to corrode it down to nothing hence the very light weight.
Rest in Peace

Acid dipped...the rim is gone. A dug coin would still have rim and not have lost so much weight. If I had my computer I'd post pix

Edit: the pitting is probably caused by a day or two in Coca-Cola...

Good point - didn't give the rim being gone a consideration!

Acid.

This is never what a dug copper looks like, regardless of the soil or its age.

It's just damaged. It have been filthy and sometimes people soak coins in a cola soft drink to clean them. It ruins them.

Damaged, even though a wheat, it has no value, except 1C
