I'm wondering what something like this is worth?

It's damaged. You can see the displaced metal where the chin took a hit. It is worth 2-3 cents because it's a wheat cent.

 

ok it looks to me to perfect of a hit there no bends or tears in perfect across

 

Just damage. Welcome to CT.

 

Copper is a malleable metal and easily damaged. As you learn about the minting process, it will be obvious that this is damage and could not have occurred during the minting process

 

thanks

 

There is nothing that is too perfect on a circulated coin.

To answer your question, it's worth one cent. Welcome to CT BTW.
