Derwood, probably from a Grease Filled Die issue.

Derwood,
You posted in a really old thread. You need to start your own thread with good photos.

Your coin looks like a 194? S to me.

It is customary to post full, large and sharp photos of the obverse and reverse. That way, we can get a sense for the full context of the coin--develop a much better understanding of what we're looking at. Thanks.

The position of the third digit is too close to the 9 for it to be a 4.

Can you see a VDB on the shoulder? That would help to narrow the date possibilities.

A clear image of the mint mark might help. And as Zurie mentioned, check the shoulder for the designer's initials.VDB

Check here to see which mint mark style it is. MMS-001 or MMS-002, might help narrow it further

Well, whatever date it is - it's a nice Struck Through Grease cent.
