Not sure how it got to Malaysia, but as already stated, not a proof coin.

"In the brilliant new condition for sure to be honest with you" sounds a little sketchy to me...  |

This coin is not a proof, not is it rare. It's just a common, harshly cleaned Wheat cent. |

It's beautiful to you - and that is all that really matters. The CCF is an international community - and as such we have contributing members from all across the globe - in that regard I politely suggest the following: We should give some consideration to the local coin circumstances when addressing their questions. The OP with this Lincoln Cent is from Malaysia - where I can only imagine how this cent came into their possession. That of course does not change any of the accurate technical evaluations ... I suppose at the end of the day what I'm asking for is some empathy and care for the spirit of sharing of USA coins from far away lands. I submit the following reply to Thecollectible: Your coin is common in it's home country of the USA - and as such is not valued as a premium numismatic item. I'm curious how you came across it and how it is valued in your country. |

Not a proof or not particularly rare. Harshly cleaned and polished. My grade for it would be EF-45. Nice coin in your part of the world, definitely a keeper for your collection!  |

These beautiful coin looks blur vision without more shining after the images enlarged to maximum size than clear vision with more shining in reality learn my lesson for how to take picture without enlarging the images to show better coin that showing on scans and have purchased for another Lincoln Cent coin as World laughing stock third world edition myself is crazy for world coins especially United States America Lincoln copper cent coins must be in RED shade feeling so proud for having coins belong to your country will show everyone these forum later there |

How are you going to explain for Golden Toning head and liberty on obverse if it has been harshly cleaned and polished on surface
