    Sorry guys I'm new to this but I need help with two things and don't know how to start. But I found a 1918 d wheat penny but the thing about it is that the D mint mark is minted over top of the top half of the 8 in the date 1918. Is there anyone that can help me out with identifying this coin and how much it's worth? Any replies are and will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Go to www.photobucket.com
    Make an account, or log in with facebook.
    Click upload.
    Wait for them to upload.
    Click on the text that says something like [IMG.] (without period) that will copy it.
    Then past here, and click submit reply.

    Or, you can click on the picture frame, next to the thing that looks like a film strip on the top bar when you go to make a reply, then click upload from computer, and go from there.

    Looks like a standard 1918 P cent, in not so good condition. Worth 1 cent, maybe 2. The blob above the 8 is PMD.

    Wheats go for about 5¢ apiece and that sure looks like a "P" to me.
