CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 04/02/2019 10:07 pm I got a bag of 600 wheat cents at my LCS today, and this is one of the results so far. I believe it to be an inverted mint mark but I want to be sure with the multiple MM styles and the circulation wear on my coin. Also, I see different sites say this is a rare variety, and others say its just one of the styles. Which one of these is correct? Thank you! -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Edited by CoinHunter27 04/03/2019 11:59 am Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/02/2019 10:18 pm No. I don't follow prices for these. Someone else might know. The black spot on the reverse will reduce the value. (carbon spot) Edited by coop 04/02/2019 10:20 pm Report this Post to the Staff
CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 04/02/2019 10:31 pm That's what I thought with the carbon spot. I expect no value out of this, I simply want to know how hard it is to come across. Thanks Mr. Coop! Appreciate your help always. -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff

CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 04/02/2019 10:45 pm Thanks GC! I'm guessing that isn't for a coin in this bad of shape right? Do you have a rarity number or mintage as well? Thanks! -CH27 -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff

tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6116 Posts	Posted 04/03/2019 12:40 am They list at URS-6 for what that's worth. Yes, Grape has it right at $5-7 for your coin, with what looked to be low grade MS condition one selling (fully and correctly attributed) on ebay a few days ago for $30. Report this Post to the Staff
