ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19129 Posts	Posted 07/10/2023 09:00 am Not immediately seeing any errors. The coin is toned, but that's another matter. Might be some (very) early stage Die Deterioration beginning to show. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 07/10/2023 09:17 am The colors are quite fetching, but not all collectors will place a premium on this feature. For a circulated, late-date Wheat cent like you have here, you can plan that it is worth somewhere in the region of 3¢ to 5¢.

oddguy Pillar of the Community United States 4135 Posts	Posted 07/10/2023 09:36 am The cost of ownership is low. So if you like it then keep it. I like the color too. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73844 Posts	Posted 07/10/2023 09:44 am I agree. Also, the lettering is showing Die Deterioration Doubling. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 07/10/2023 09:49 am to the CCF! Nice eye catching toning! Copper can tone in many different colors. If it were a uncirculated coin, I'm sure you could sell it on ebay. Even with the wear showing on the coin, it might attract a a buyer. As noted above, if you like it, pop it in a 2x2 and keep it. It'll only cost you a cent ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95200 Posts	Posted 07/10/2023 5:21 pm there are no noticeable errors here, but the toning is quite striking. Collecting since 1972.

hlw1976 Valued Member United States 422 Posts	Posted 07/10/2023 7:36 pm Just a Toning it happens when it gets in certain elements or it's in certain kind of containers they don't know why it does it. But it's a beautiful coin Edited by hlw1976 07/10/2023 7:36 pm Report this Post to the Staff
