1953 s/d wheat cent

Was hoping someone had some information on this coin. Any idea of it's worth or a starting point on ebay would be nice, too.

Are you sure it's an OMM? I don't see it with the pics you provided.

 

not a hundred percent positive, but it sure looks like a "D" to the left of the "S". this is why i am putting it on here to get opinions first.

 

Sorry, don't see anything. Here's the best site to check your Lincolns for OMM and doubled die varieties.

I don't see any "D" mintmark , some surface discoloration, but nothing else.

I agree with Jim, looks like a drop of something or discoloration.

 

The real issue is that the pics themselves are not very useful for looking at RPM's and OMM's. Is there any way you can pan closer?

 

I will try with a regular camera. I don't think it is a stain because there is some lift

 

I see no "D" mintmark either.

 

I think I can see what you are talking about. It appears to be partially under the left side of the S and one part of it appears raised at the top of the bottom curve of the S. is this what you are seeing.

I believe some people on here think you are asking about the stain spot to the right of the S.

 

Don't see it. Worth? one cent!

 

Hey! this coin is worth more than one cent. It is copper plus a wheat back cent.

 

The copper is only worth one-half of one cent because it is an alloy and not Grade A copper.

Just don't tell the guys buying copper cents on eBay that!!

 

I think someone has been drinking too much swamp water. LOL
