<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Rosalita, post: 4747927, member: 110895&quot;]Hi guys,</p><p><br /></p><p>I found this 1916 <a href="https://www.coincommunity.com/us_small_cents/lincoln_wheat_ear.asp" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.coincommunity.com/us_small_cents/lincoln_wheat_ear.asp" rel="nofollow">Wheat penny</a> while coin jar hunting and was wondering about the toning on this coin. The obverse has brown toning and the reverse has red toning. Could this 2 toning have occurred from sitting in a glass jug with a lot of other pennies? Is this 2 sided toning rare?</p><p><br /></p><p>Also wanted to ask weather this is a proof penny? I read that square rims are an indication of a proof pennies. How can you tell for sure when searching old pennies?</p><p><br /></p><p>I have attached 2 photo&#039;s to show the obverse and reverse at the same time after being photographed in a mirror in a coin flip.(which was not that easy to do!)[ATTACH=full]1159796[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1159797[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1159798[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1159799[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
