The reverse die seems to be a bit worn, giving the reverse a softer look. The surfaces are clean with minimal marks. There is some strike weakness at the 1 o&#039;clock position on the front rim and 11 o&#039;clock on the reverse.</p><p><br /></p><p>I think this may be about MS66, which NGC&#039;s price guide for <a href="https://www.ngccoin.com/coin-explorer/lincoln-cents-wheat-reverse-1909-1958-pscid-99/1944-s-1c-ms-coinid-12729" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ngccoin.com/coin-explorer/lincoln-cents-wheat-reverse-1909-1958-pscid-99/1944-s-1c-ms-coinid-12729" rel="nofollow">1944 S 1C MS</a> puts at $35. This seems like a good deal since there was no expense for getting it slabbed.</p><p><br /></p><p>This coin will replace the one in my album.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
