    I have 1956 Lincoln wheat I have reasons to believe may be on a "wrong planchet" "off metal" or ??? Any thoughts and opinion would be helpful thank you.

    You'll need pictures but a great many of these are science experiments where something is used to change the color of the copper.

    That coin was ridden hard and put away wet.

    Dont get the wrong idea fellas I did once upon a time believe that may have been the case.... That is until i found a 1955 with what look like to be the same type of "error" so please give reasons to why you believe what you believe other wise dont feel offended if i dont stand by what you believe because to me it shows you're just going on assumptions without research... I may be wrong but from what Im seeing the possobilities of "error" has more weight than damaged coin. Thank you.

    Yours is not similar to any of the others you posted.
    Yours looks as though it got a little to close to a grinding wheel, sandpaper, rasp or parking lot/street surface.

    I've done my research. Perhaps you should do your own now. You should start with learning how coins are minted and what can and can't go wrong in the minting process.

    The other coins that are not yours seem smaller than the Cent you have and may be off-metal errors. Your Cent looks like a normal Cent with Post Mint Damage.

    Sorry, there is not much weight to what you say. You have proven nothing but your idea of what may be the cause. I provide pictures for comparison from reliable sources Im sorry but from what Im seeing there is more weight for "possobilities" against "odds"

    What you've said made sense thank you You've given good reasons and Ive taken into consideration what you've stated. Also you were right about the first coin 1956 D weighs just a gram short of 3.2 weighing in at 3.0. The 1955 as you should be able to see yourself.

    You came here looking for opinions on your coins, and then all you do is argue that all of the opinions given are wrong.
    OK, perfesser, tell us the facts so that we may learn.
