    Anyone know much about the "wood grain" pennies? I can't remember the proper term for this but I know I've heard of them. Does this boost the value of the coin? Just getting back into collecting. I've been out of the loop for a while. These are the best pics I can get. The grain is better seen with the naked eye. 20160510_205519.jpg 20160510_205316.jpg 20160510_204530.jpg

    They are referred to as "Woodies" by some. Minor collectability.
