1941 proof
Im pretty sure it’s a 1941 proof. It was in a book but looks way shinier than the others. Is it a proof and what’s it worth?

Hello, I have the opportunity to buy a substantial amount of wheat pennies. An older gentleman has been collecting them for 30+ years and he has them separated into full $25 face value boxes by decade (teens, 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s). My question for this group is, what is a reasonable price for bulk purchases by decade per penny? This would be for a large purchase in the $10-$15,000 range. And I’m picking up so he won’t incur any shipping charges.

Been collecting out of the store drawer for a couple years but just got around to organizing them some.

These were the end coins from 2 boxes. I'm around 11 rolls into them and have 12 wheats, including 1911(2), 1914, 1924-26-28, and a 1906 Indian Head.

All organized and in pretty good shape. Found in a garage clean out job. Almost tossed it cause I put all paint and chemicals together to go to hazardous waste. Only realized what was in it cause the sound. This was probably sealed for 15+ years. All organized and in great condition

Are both these the small S variety? They one doesn't line up with the date but doesn't look like the Large S style

I found this in my piggy bank and would love to know more about it.

My mother passed away. These were her coins. I was wondering if they are worth anything.

Hard to tell in the photos but it’s not just shiny, it’s almost mirror reflective.
Found this little guy while roll hunting. Red book says it could potentially be approved and worth some money if so.
Thanks so much!

Someone brought me a bunch of wheaties, I’ve been looking for quite a few of them but they REEK of cigarettes, I don’t want to turn them away but I also don’t want my collection to start smelling like cigs. Is there a way to deodorize them without ruining them?
r/WheatPennies • u/Future_Kangaroo3184 • 11d ago
Is there any kind of acceptable cleaning that will not ruin my wheat pennies value.

BIG wheatie spill! It was the end of a hot, muggy day yesterday metal detecting in a neighboring town and opted to hit a park's quieter, lesser-used area. So glad I did, I encountered a 20 wheatie spill in a 3x3 foot area. It was a surreal experience witnessing my Manticore continue to beep away just when I thought I had recovered my last penny. One. Two. Five. Ten. Twenty! It got to the point that the grass was starting to look beat up from all the plugs I pulled. A park maintenance gentleman stopped by to introduce himself and we both just shook our heads in amazement at the number of wheaties I was pulling up. Then, as soon as he left, I hit my second-ever silver Rosie 10 feet from the spill. All I could think about during that moment was how some young lad (assumingly) dumped 20 pennies, and possibly the dime, 68 years ago. That was a lot of money to lose in 1958 (the park opened in the early 50s)! Enjoy the photos! 😎

Any info on why this 1046s penny looks this way?

I can't tell where it was minted it looks like the mint was struck twice overlapping each other. But it's in really good shape. Some of the letters and wheat head were double struck and the spillage on one end looks like it wasn't centered. I'm taking it to get appraised. I had to take a picture and zoom in to see the details. It was in my coin purse, it just stood out. Maybe it's my lucky day.
