Hard to tell due to damage from having been in the wild for 64 years. Unfortunately, there's no premium either way due to severe corrosion and possible scratches.

If you are able please try to post up a close-up of the reverse (tails side) that 'could' be a lamination or just damage. The obverse (front side) is all just damage

Yours is a badly damaged CENT, with a value ( because it's a wheatie) of about 3 CENTS.

Any damage to a coin, ruins the value to the coin. (just a damaged Wheat cent now)
