Rosalita Valued Member United States 96 Posts	Posted 12/18/2020 11:31 am Hi guys, I have this 1889 Indian Head penny and would like help to confirm that it is in fact a woody. If so, is this unusual for Indian Head pennies? I have not seen this too often. Second question is to ask about the rim. Why is the rim much thicker on the obverse left side and bottom/bottom right than the rest of the penny? It is also of different thickness on the reverse. Thanks very much!
