barryg Pillar of the Community United States 5862 Posts	Posted 08/16/2011 10:07 pm As I posted in another thread, I have three wheat back pennies that I pulled from circulation over a period of years. Each one was a surprise because they appeared to be brand new coins until I turned them over. That was years ago and they have started to tarnish a bit, but I think they're still in decent shape. I was wondering if anybody could help me grade them: Thanks!

BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19969 Posts	Posted 08/17/2011 09:11 am 35 - MS-62RB Others - MS-63RD I personally wouldn't call the 35BU, it's a red-brown coin. The other two I'd be OK with calling them BU. Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff

barryg Pillar of the Community United States 5862 Posts	Posted 08/17/2011 09:19 am I think those marks are part of the design. Check out this image I just snagged from Wikipedia: Unless you're talking about different marks than I thought you were talking about...
