I was lucky enough to find this in pocket change. Not bad condition, either... Grade opinions?   |

Looks killer, but pics too dark to evaluate.

Pics still too dark, sorry. Looking EF or better, but these are like mud.

I'm good with XF45-AU50. Maybe it was from Grandma's collection. Heck, I've intentionally dropped dozens of VF or better early wheat cents into circulation over time--no key or semi-key dates, however.

I think this is at least AU50. Looks almost entirely free of nicks and other marks, too.

Gosh, 106 years and in circulation (again?). I haven't seen a Wheat cent in change for years. Seems mid-AU to me. |

Judging by the condition, I would assume that
this coin has not been in circulation for almost all of it's existence.
An old collector's cull ?

 w/the comments that this coin was in someones collection for most of its life. you just dont find coins like this in circulation AU53 probably in the $35 range. nice find. I guess theres still some coins floating around that have some value just gotta keep your eyes peeled |
