jacrispies Pillar of the Community United States 3848 Posts	Posted 11/27/2021 02:20 am You got it, just a damaged Lincoln Wheat cent. Most likely a metal detecting find, causing the corrosion, dirt in the devices, and the green color. Suffering from bust half fever. Want to learn how to attribute early half dollars by die variety?

Dearborn Moderator United States 96451 Posts	Posted 11/27/2021 08:59 am Almost looks like it could be a woody. Due to the damage on this coin maybe an acetone soak might reveal new details on it, or wash off that 'woody' appearance. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19167 Posts	Posted 11/27/2021 09:04 am Damaged, and exposed to a corrosive environment (which may account for the low-end weight). Suggest soaking the coin in pure acetone for a day or two. There may be a woody in there. Report this Post to the Staff
Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 7512 Posts	Posted 11/27/2021 09:12 am Corrosion has taken it's toll and most likely eaten away some of the metal, that could contribute to loss of weight. Report this Post to the Staff
