 . What makes it worth that much? What are you seeing as a variety or error? John1  |

To CCF , Please tell us why you and your Nephew think it could be worth up to $10,000 ? All I see is a common worn Lincoln Wheat cent . Pics are too small to to see anything else . Looks to be about 3¢ value .  |

From what I can see, less than five cents. Hopefully your nephew can be more specific. to the CCF! Edited by Coinfrog

Given the photos posted, I'm seeing a common 1948 D Wheat cent. Very common--worth anywhere from 3-5 cents. Please consider posting better lit, large and sharp photos. |

@bood, first welcome to CCF. Second, it would be helpful for us to understand what you are seeing with the coin in hand that makes this Wheat cent an error or a variety as this isn't coming through in your pics. If there is nothing specifically special, then I agree that the value is somewhere around 3x-5x face. "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."

Thank u for your comments, gentlemen. It's my nephew who taught it was 10t because he googled and found link showing aone that was that high. I told him I'd look into it and just as many of u I only found a common penny but I'm not an expert and I didn't want to tell him the bad news until I was sure. I tried to post higher resolution post but there was 300k limit in pic attachment. I lowered resolution but I may have gone too far. As for anything unusual I did notice the w on in god we trust seemed like a potential error but I think it's just regular wear or damage. I think it's a consensus among u posters that this is a common penny. I thank for your posts but I think I will have to tell my nephew to keep looking. Than you

I hate to add more disappointment to you, but I too see a fairly normal coin with a value of about 3 cents. If you find other coins you'd like second opinions on, bring them on by, we're always open and we'll be honest with you. p.s. - the coin photography thing gets easier and easier the more you do it, so keep trying!  to the CFF!  |
