Comfort Numb Valued Member United States 126 Posts	Posted 08/30/2020 9:33 pm Coin is in bad shape, but looks like the 1942 Wheat penny error FS-01-1942-104 or Coneca DDO-008. Any thoughts? Report this Post to the Staff

Comfort Numb Valued Member United States 126 Posts	Posted 08/31/2020 4:30 pm I will have to look up how to do the acetone bath thing. Will coins loose value after that? Thanks everyone for your help. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinHunter27 Pillar of the Community United States 5887 Posts	Posted 08/31/2020 4:36 pm Does not look like DDO-008 FS-104 to me. FS-104 has a strong doubled eyelid for the main PUP.
