Mdub New Member United States 22 Posts	Posted 04/07/2019 5:58 pm Hey All, Found this 1940 Wheat penny, and the 0 looks like an upside down D. I looked at all of my other 1940's and nothing even close. Don't know how well the picture does it justice. So let me know if you need more pics. Thank you all in advance!

SilverCents Pillar of the Community United States 3281 Posts	Posted 04/11/2019 02:38 am Agreed, damage. Is a 1940 Wheat cent really considered "classic" though? I would think this would be in the modern errors forum page. Report this Post to the Staff
