allcoinsaregood Pillar of the Community United States 808 Posts	Posted 01/12/2026 2:07 pm in the 6 years I have been collecting US Cents, this is a first for me. While looking through a tube of Wheat cents, I found a 1940 P LWC with a small block printing on the top of the rim. I don't know what the width of the rim is, but it's tiny! I know this is PMD, but I hope someone has seen this before. My eyes are not good, so my pics may not be clear. Take a look and let me know your thoughts and regards to all.
