Wholler17 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 06/13/2019 05:33 am I have a 1946 Lincoln Wheat penny that looks as though it has a profile of Lincoln on the back same spot as the front. But can't find anything online. Report this Post to the Staff

Wholler17 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 06/14/2019 6:15 pm Is it worth anything? I've got a good sized handful of Wheat pennies. None of which are 1943 steel. Some seem to have errors. How do I go about finding the value? Report this Post to the Staff

It is most often noted on Wheat cents, but it occurs on other coins also. You might save it for educational purposes to new collectors you come in contact with. A sharing of what you have found to a new collector. (You will have something for show and tell. LOL) Edited by coop 06/14/2019 6:25 pm Report this Post to the Staff
