NickG Valued Member United States 71 Posts	Posted 03/10/2018 03:52 am Hello Forum first time posting here. New to coin collecting, I have a coin collection I inherited and ran across this 1938 Wheat penny. Not sure if it is worth anything other than it being interesting. Please let me know your thoughts.

Definitely worth putting into a 2x2 for safekeeping.
