I would think so. I do have an 1864 2 cent Woodie: http://www.cointalk.com/t193307/#post1280463

 

Call it whatever you want.... I think it is a combination of an improper planchet mix, followed by and corrosion which brought it out, followed by a cleaning which lightened the surfaces.

 

Any thoughts BradThad, Rim'sCents?

 

The angle of the graining from obverse to reverse are consistent with a woody.

 

Thanks for the comments everyone and a thanks to Marshall for asking some advice from the woody experts.

I am still learning early coppers but liked the look of this one and while the woody aspect wasn't the look I was seeking it sure had the possibilities of a woody.

I'm not sure if there was/is corrosion present but I can't say I see any from the photos myself.
