Ok, you helped me with my last one, now what is this? Extra wheat on the left side? Most likely nothing. Just double checking! Thanks in advance!

do you own a document scanner? I'm using that to take 1200 dpi images... might find it helpful.
I am thinking that penny has suffered an impact, given the damaged looking area around the mark. But before I am convinced 100%, tell me what that is to the side of the S on the other wheat ear.

It's another little blop except maybe a little flatter? And there's a tiny bit of an overlay on the N and the T but it was so fair I didn't even mention it. Document scanner is a great idea!! I will do that in 20 mins after I get the little one to bed. Stay tuned lol

Those are die chips on both the right and left wheat stock. If they were larger it would be considered a RIDB. Very common on all years of 1950 era cents

Coin made late in the growing season. Lots of extra Wheat then. Nice photos though.
