mjp79 New Member United States 22 Posts	Posted 02/13/2021 3:33 pm Ran across this while searching coin rolls that I just picked up from the bank. I feel certain this is a "woody" and not just roller lines, but would like a second opinion. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

Numisma Pillar of the Community United States 4963 Posts	Posted 02/13/2021 3:47 pm Agreed, it's a woody. They're not quite as common on the later wheaties. Edited by Numisma 02/13/2021 3:47 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Waynoah83 Pillar of the Community 586 Posts	Posted 02/15/2021 4:18 pm I'm confused. The first set of pics is of a 1962 that looks like a clipped planchet and the alloy mix looks normal and uniform from what I can tell. Did you accidentally post the wrong coin at first or is everyone else seeing something else for the first set of pics. The second set of pics of the 1940 is def a woody and an awesome example. Nice score. Report this Post to the Staff
