Here is a 1950 no mint mark Wheat penny I was wondering if anyone had any ideas as far as value and if there are any errors or different varieties

You need to work on your photos. They're a little bit blurry and out of focus. So far, I am not seeing any errors or varieties.

Can't tell anything from blurry photos.
We have to be able to clearly see the details.
Right now it just looks like a regular 1950 cent.
Also you tell us what you think is an error or variety so we
aren't searching for something that may not be there
then we will tell you if you are right or wrong.

And of course, ' no mint mark' for a Wheat cent = struck at the Philadelphia mint.

Your images are a bit out of focus to see any details.
To me it looks like a normal circulated cent.

Please , just tell him her the truth - It's a common 1950 Wheat cent, No errors or varieties, worth about 2 or 3 cents - mostly from the copper metal content.

I see a common date (out of focus) circulated Lincoln Cent. Value is a few cents.
Take a look at my other hobby ... https://www.jk-dk.art
