What I see is a 101 year old Cent that has had a rough life. Some kind of harsh environment affected the surface. I have found similar looking Cents in rivers and on beaches. The edge could be 1 of 2 things. A minor Partial Collar strike or it was once in some kind of jewelry bezel. But thanks for sharing.
Well that's cool thanks for looking at my photos. I figured I better check because I weighed a coin with a lot of damage and the worse was 2.9. But this coin weighs 2.6 so that's why I asked. Thanks again for looking.
Thanks for showing your penny. I agree with Paddyman in that this coin has had a very rough life. Regardless, it will complete your wheat set but, I am sorry to say is not really worth much at all. My eyes see a coin below Good so, its worth maybe a dime. Enjoy though.
Sorry. The question was what could make this penny weigh 2.6 when it doesn't look like much was taken off the coin.
Well you are in luck because I have one other 1916 s. What other years are you looking for in your collection. I have a few years that I can manage. Post your collection to me and I'll compare notes
Lolol oh ya I wish I had just one of those!!! Best looking, low mint year coin I have is an AUish 1933 D.
lol i don't have a 1909 s vdb lol an S on a 1909 anything would be nice. If I had extras I'd spare one
I'm just yanking your leg! Lol. Do you have a wheat cent collection that you have started? Maybe books? I'm just curious to see how full your book is. Thanks for your time.
I'll make a thread tonight and tag you in it. Either tonight or tomorrow. Most likely tonight but yes I keep every wheat cent I find no matter what condition. Got the blue Whitman books
