allcoinsaregood Pillar of the Community United States 808 Posts	Posted 03/10/2026 5:24 pm Has anyone seen a 1949 LWC like this one? I have eight plastic rolls of wheats which I searched for a duplicate! I thought it might be an impaired Proof, but after searching the internet, I found nothing. Take a look at the pics and let me know if you can identify it. TIA and regards to all! Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 94812 Posts	Posted 03/10/2026 6:58 pm yep, we call that a circulation cameo. The high points are rubbed to keep the normal copper color and the fields and low areas toned out. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
