    So I bought a book of Whitman Lincoln cents, and this was in it. Some of this looks like damage, but also struck through just above the date next to the edge, but there is also the edge is also missing on almost 1/2 the coin, and the reverse is worse, and the rim of this is indented all the way around 1945-S_wheat_O_20.jpg
    here you can see the strike through struckthrough.jpg
    on the reverse the rim is weeker than the Obverse

    Looks like PMD across the board to me. Too much damage for any value to remain.

    It's not a good-looking coin, that's for sure.

    I’m not seeing a strike through but I am seeing damage by the date that has been worn by circulation. The left wheat stalk rim is from the coin taking a hit.

    That Cent was once encased in a Bezel and after many years released. It's all damage.

    A bezel will damage the edge and the rim.
