Dearborn Moderator United States 97917 Posts	Posted 11/01/2021 9:09 pm It is an extremely worn LWC ( Lincoln Wheat cent) If you look closely at the reverse you can read: Row 1: the letter 'N' on "ONE" Row 2: In large letters 'EN' of the word "CENT" Row 3: in smaller letters: 'TED ST' of the words "UNITED STATES".

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 11/01/2021 10:56 pm May have been deliberately damaged, but definitely post mint damage. Lack of rims on the reverse tells us it's not a mint error. to the CCF! Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/02/2021 10:57 am Or circulated till the design was almost all worn off. The rim on the coin prevents the coins devices to remain strong. Well on the obverse the rim is higher, but the reverses on the wheat cents are not a high. So they don't prevent the circulation flattening as much as that part of the rim is not as tall. Thus why the Wheat cent reverses are suffering more on this series. Not all the Memorials didn't have the reverse wear issue. Just the wheat series reverses. Edited by coop 11/02/2021 11:19 am Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 97917 Posts	Posted 11/02/2021 4:34 pm Thanks Coop, I thought I got it correct on this coin. After all I do not see ANY sanding or grinder marks on it. It just looks VERY worn out. No intentional damage at all. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
