I picked this one at a thrift store for fifty cents. It was being sold as a 1940 S Wheat cent without any variety attribution. Variety Vista: 1940-S RPM-007 Coppercoins: 1940S-1MM-007 Wexler: 1940-S 1¢ WRPM-006 "Best Of" Variety

Congrats. Nice images. The RPM was even visible on your full coin shot.
Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Another one of the better RPMs in the Lincoln series that I would hope to see in the next edition of the CherryPickers' Guide. Lots of lesser ones in the current edition but this one got missed.

Really nice Wheat cent. Wish the thrift stores around here sold stuff like that for 50 cents!

Nice find and buy! Quote:Really nice Wheat cent. Wish the thrift stores around here sold stuff like that for 50 cents! I agree..In the middle of nowhere, the several thrift stores in my town sell heavily circulated wheat cents like they're gold.
