I found this coin in a roll of pennies, it is in the teens. I just can't figure out the year.

Always fun trying to determine dates on well-worn early wheat cents. Would need to see the coin in-hand and tilt it under a variety of lighting sources. MIght be an 18 or 16, or even 10--just guessing.

It looks like a "D" mintmark so it can't be '10. Not sure whether it's '16 or '18 though.

probably 1910.

Check out Lincoln's shoulder - if the initials are there then it has to be '18 (or '19).

I have checked on the shoulder and I didn't see anything, I agree with 1910-s.

Looks like a "D" mint mark and likely 1910.

It does look like a "D" mint mark, but can't be 1910--no Denver pennies were minted that year.
