Bigthudson,
You should start your own thread. Looks like it was gold plated.

But on the OP's coin, the coin does appear gold plated. To a collector, a plated coin is a ruined coin. The weight is showing a heavy plating weight.

I agree, appears to be plated. Sorry, no premium.

A 1941 wouldn't be brass plated since this is not a after 1983 cent. But I find wheat occasionally plated with gold for some sort of "collectible" scam or tourist souvenirs.
