That is a very nice 1871! It is one of four that I am missing (1870, 1871, 1876 and 1908-S) before completing the whole Indian Head cent collection.

Congrats!

I dug this one from an 1860's era yard, semi-key I think.

I usually boycott posts with too many emoticons, but wanted to show off probably my best coin find. Over a $400 find! What would you grade it at?

The standing lib is a cracked die, You cad see it on the date and on the wing on the right side. The 1922 is in nice shape.

[danalf]

this is the best coin i have in my collection. a 1943 copper wheatie.

 

[DirtFlipper]

HOLY COW! What's the story on that one? There's supposed to be only like 10-40 known or so and worth a couple hundred grand. Definitely worth getting authenticated, as there have been fakes.

I was reading somewhere on the forums these are being made and beleive they cost less than a buck, but are not real and could be copper coated steel pennies. Just like any rare coin someone seems to make one and there will be a slight difference than the real one.

 

[weston]

not trying to be rude or anything, BUT i highly doubt that '43 wheat is real. if it was, and it was mine i would sell it and buy myself a lambo. then when everyone asks how much i paid for it i would say a penny and i wouldn't be liein

 

[Goes4ever]

a real copper wheatie is worth anywhere from 10K to 80K.............EXTREMELY, EXTREMELY RARE

 

[danalf]

I bought some stuff at the store and got it back as change. i could not believe it.

 

[weston]

send it off to see if its real. i have a hard time believeing its real, but if it is, your a "few" thousands bucks richer.

[croakersmoker78]

well better send it out because 1 in a million that it is fake maybe 100 million

 

[chuck ky]

you can check it with a target i.d. machine to see if its copper plating steel.

 

[reltolbert]

To danalf,

According to my '2010 edition of A Guide Book Of United States Coins' the 1943 Copper Penny in good condition
is only worth between 30 - 40 cents.
I don't know where a lot of people are getting this information that this penny is worth a fortune. Check the facts.

 

[reltolbert]

I apologise. The zinc penny is worth only 30-40 cents. The copper penny is worth a fortune.
I'm sorry for my mistake.
