    It beats jabbing a pencil into your cornea.

    If only just.

    I too am very fond of the 56-D. So many varieties to look for! It's one of my favorite rolls to purchase because of this. It has the RPM#1, arguably the boldest RPM of the series. And the RPM#8, one of the few completely-separated RPM's out there. Plus it has the two or maybe three D/S (as controversial as they are) which fuel endless debates. Several interesting BIEs exist as well. There was also the very interesting change to the master die that year to increase the size of the B in LIBERTY (see http://www.macrocoins.com/overlays.html for an animation showing the change), which was supposed to help fix the BIE breaking problem. It didn't!! 56-D was the first year after the close of the SF Mint, so first year that Denver had to provide all the Cent stock to West Coast banks. This makes 56-D OBW rolls much more interesting, as they exist from banks that previously got their coins from San Francisco. I'm sure there are many more interesting tidbits about this mintage but just these few make 56-D Lincolns a must-have for Cent collectors.

    Million dollars? Nope.

    An undamaged coin in circulated condition is worth about 5 to 50 cents, depending on the grade. In Mint State, they're worth a bit more, but still just a few dollars. 1944 was a very high mintage year, making it one of the most common - if not THE most common - date in the Wheat cents.

    I have a 1956 Wheat D Penny. Just needs to be polished up but looks like it was not circulated very much at all.

    Never polish a coin! This thread was a big joke at the time it was started, 2 1/2 years ago. Welcome to CT.
