Found this one last night in a bag of circulated wheats. It's a little rough but these things are pretty rare so nice to find it.

For comparison, this one is almost exactly the same die stage as the one on this website:

Nice find.
That weakness to the base of the inverted MM makes this variety a little easier to spot.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

There are two different ones that year:
1946-S-Lincoln-Wheat-Cent-Inverted-Mint-Mark---IMM-001
Both are BJ Neff finds. Mintmark locations are the differences.
