"Hi,
I have a wheat penny from 1947 and i was just wondering how much i could get for it.
thank you,
Jessica"
The 1947 wheat penny is very common and even in near perfect condition it is not worth much. Near perfect meaning a full red bright color, not scratched and with full sharp details.
They came in three mint marks located under the date D=Denver, S=San Francisco or blank=Philadelphia
These two 1947D cent are AG-3(about good)
Here's the stats for a 1947 penny...
Year: 1947
Metal: 95% copper, 5% tin and zinc
Mintage: 190,555,000
Value: VF-20 $0.10 or MS-65 $4.00
Year: 1947D
Metal: 95% copper, 5% tin and zinc
Mintage: 194,750,000
Value: VF-20 $0.10 or MS-65 $4.00
Year: 1947S
Metal: 95% copper, 5% tin and zinc
Mintage: 99,000,000
Value: VF-20 $0.20 or MS-65 $6.00
VF=very fine & MS=mint state
The higher MS-65 prices are only for great examples.
Thanks for your visit.
Do you have a wheat penny and want to find out its value? Leave a comment/question and I will do my best to find out the price and history for you.

«Oldest ‹Older 1 – 200 of 311 Newer› Newest»i have a wheat penny from 1909it is still readable but not in the greatest condition i also have a wheat penny from 1942 its in better shape but nowhere near new.
I'll post about them in a minute but it's about $3.00 for the 1909 and $0.10 for the 1942.
I HAVE A 1944 WHEAT PENNY THATS MISSING THE 1
Sounds like a filled in die, it's an error but doesn't usually bring in an alot of extra value.
Grease on the die causes a blank spot to appear on the design it is more common then most people think.
An average 1944 is worth $0.10 a missing 1 may bring the price to $0.20 .
i have a 1917, 1943, and 1944 wheta penny. as well as some silver dimes, and buffalo nickels. How much ore they worth ?

1943 wheat penny....$0.30
1944 wheat penny....$0.10

I've got a1946 wheat penny with no letter and a 1956d wheat penny how much would they be worth.
1946 in Very Fine=$0.10

I have a 1956 Penny that appears to be an error from the mint. I have had this penny for about 15 years. I used to have a coin book that had this exact penny in the book but lost the book and havent found another book with it listed. My question is, do you think it is a legit error or did someone do this? PIC1
PIC2
When I first saw it it looked like a clipped error. But on closer look it seems someone shaved the edge.
Even if this is a genuine error the condition is so bad that it would be only a few cents. Sorry.
I do like the way it looks. Your coined may have spent some time buried.
how much would a wheat penny that is from 1941 without a mint mark in good condition, letters are not rubbed away in the least bit but the color is a little ungleeming.
1941 no mint mark meaning it is from Philadelphia is worth abut $0.10 in good condition.
Hi.
I have an indian head penny dated 1883 in good readable condition, but the back is blank. Any ideas?
1883 one side blank cent
Most likely a fake because if one side is pressed the other side must also be pressed.
First check if the reverse has a rim, if so it may be real.
Second the reverse should not be smooth it should be wavy or have a ghost image of either the front or back design.
Third it should weigh 3.11 grams.
If smooth and underweight it is a fake done by grinding off the back.
Hey. Manny.
I got a 1947 and 1944 coin in great condition. the 1947 one has NO scratches (hopefully), no letters or numbers are missing or blurring.
The 1944 one has a little smudge so if you don't look closely it looks like
UN(*smudge IT, and some of E*)D
Also have some canadian old coins.
2 of them have errors.
One looks like it's bended and on the other side (back) it looks like
something heavy pressed on part of it but on the edge it's thicker.
The other penny has almost the same thing. Except it's VERY small. Just a hint of the corner (around the size of the top of my pointer finger which is maybe a CM).
And the old ones are, 1940, 46,40, 44, 43, and 45.
REMEMBER THESE PENNIES EXCEPT FOR THE WHEATS ARE CANADIAN. >but I wish that the 43 was american. :(<
1947 about $0.10
1944 about $0.10
Canadian coins.
One looks like it's bended and on the other side (back) it looks like something heavy pressed on part of it but on the edge it's thicker.
Doesn't sound like a real error.
The other penny has almost the same thing. Except it's VERY small. Just a hint of the corner (around the size of the top of my pointer finger which is maybe a CM).
Again it doesn't sound real.
1940 about $0.10
1946 about $0.10
1940 about $0.10
1944 about $0.10
1943 about $0.10
1945 about $0.10
Most coins from the WWII era are not worth much.
If you still think the error coins are legit just post a picture somewhere and link it in the comments and I'll take a look or pass it on to smarter collectors.
I have a 1996 lincoln penny with a fingerprint made on the front,covers most of penny.I am new to this and was also wondering what is the best magnifying glass(inexpensive) to use?
Thank you,
DR
A fingerprint is damage and makes the coin worthless.
As for magnifiers I don't use any but I hear simple jewelers loupes work great.
my step father and i were reciently looking tru his coin collection handed down from his father and noticed many old coins. the only one that i remember was a steel wheat penny. i thnk the year was 1943. we were wondering its value.
1943 steel cents average $0.30 in fine grade.
i have a 1946 wheat penny.. how much could it be worth?
1946 wheat penny
In very fine about $0.10
even in higher grades like mint state it is less then a dollar.
i own a 1909 VDB penny in great condition. it has most of the original red toning, but is transitioning to brown. The tone is smooth but there are a few small spots. everything is defined and readable
whats this graded and worth?
1909 VDB penny in great condition. it has most of the original red toning, but is transitioning to brown
This would be a red-brown mint state grade.
About $15.00 in MS-60.
About $18.00 in MS-63 which is usual for red-brown cents.
I've found a 1940 silver lincoln penny.... like in very fine state, whats it worth?
1940 silver lincoln penny.... like in very fine state
No such thing.
It is either a fake or an error.
Weigh it.
If it weighs 3.11grams it's a fake.
why are there so many errors in wheat cents,i have some with cuds,cracks/cud that driped down side of wheat were the die crack is also whats a wheat coin that on top looks like it curves in the eage is little higher also have a wheat missing an i in liberty,i have i think its called cud /pieace of copper thats in #,s and letters a lot look allmost new i could keep on going i have so many errors how much for them who would by all of them? thankyou.dp
why are there so many errors in wheat cents
Quality wasn't the best as they tried to use dies beyond their limits.
So common were the die breaks around the 1950s and the word LIBERTY that the BIE Guild was formed.
Eventually too many errors were found and the price fell to just a little above face. The guild and there books closed.
Still a nice retained cud can bring a dollar or more.
Modern coins suffer from bubbles, plating variations and die cracks.
Oh almost forgot, as for selling them it would be difficult as most of these errors are very common.
Unless you hear of a specific variety then don't bother or dump them on eBay.
How much is a 1955 s ms68 rd penny graded by gallery grading company worth?
1955 s ms68 rd penny graded by gallery grading company
Gallery grading company does not have a good reputation and the grade is not accepted by most collectors.
The actual grade maybe MS-65 which would be about $2.00.
If it were MS-68 it would be about $200.00 or more. The market is very unstable on these grades. PCGS has one MS-68 listed at $14,500.00 but they tend to be high.
Where could I get a better grade for it?
Where could I get a better grade for it?
Pay to submit at PCGS or ANACS but you should be sure it is MS-67 or better because it may cost more than it's worth.
Like how much?
(he says in a very worried voice :( )
To grade a coin generally cost about $15 to $30 plus a $5 shipping fee plus the cost for you to ship the coin(s) to them.
If you become a member at any of grading services they offer discount but membership cost anywhere from $50-$200.
I also have a 1940 wheat penny that is not copper,but silver color.If you look at the edge it's all silver and the obverse and reverse are part silver and part copper color.Why would anyone want to fake a coin like that? Any ideas?

Assuming it is real it has to be certified by an expert if it weighs 3.11 grams you can be sure it's fake.
The reason to fake an error is because if this is real then it may be worth thousand of dollar since other silver pennies have been found. Most were accidentally made with silver dimes or foreign blanks.
Hi I have a penny that looks normal but the back picture was partically re-struck over the front at an angle. The back still looks normal. Lincoln's hair got most of the bars on the building. Is this worth anything?
Lisa
looks normal but the back picture was partically re-struck over the front at an angle.
It sounds like an error called Brockage. When the coin is struck by a second coin, it is about $40.00
But it may also be a double struck coin which is worth much less or even have no extra value.
You need an expert or a coin dealer to tell the difference.
I was going through my large penny collection (I say collection, more like piggy bank lol) and I found a 1947 Wheat Penny. But the thing is, the 4 is a bit higher then the other numbers. Does that make it fake?
1947 Wheat Penny. But the thing is, the 4 is a bit higher then the other numbers.
It is real sounds like a variety. Many exist and only the most obsessed collectors search for them.
Maybe about $0.50 if you can get expert to say what type but for the average collector it's only about $0.03.
I have a 1947(?) wheat penny but the 7 appears to be backwards, almost looking like the letter "r". Is there any value to this coin?
1947(?) wheat penny but the 7 appears to be backwards, almost looking like the letter "r".
This sounds more like damage but it may be a die chip either way no extra value.
I would love comments on a 1961-D Lincoln I have recently acquired:

1961-D Lincoln I have recently acquired:
This is a multiple strike 90 deg. rotated die, flipover error.
It's in medium to low grade I would say it's about $450.00 but it needs to be graded.
The last I saw was an MS-64 and did not have a flipover strike, it sells for about $700.00
I have a 1917 wheat penny that appears to have the "one cent" from the back of the coin over Lincoln face/head on the front side of the coin.
The coin is dented and the fairly worn. Please advise me as to it possible value and if there is any history on such a coin.
Thank you.

If double struck it would be about $10.00 but it needs to be verified.
I have a whole bank (a dog bank about 2 ft tall), that is filled with wheat pennies. What do you think I should do with them? Thanks!

Go through them carefully, it may take a long time.
Look for anything that looks red, shiny and new.
Look for anything that might be an error.
Look for these key dates:
1909, 1909S, 1910S, 1911S, 1912S, 1913S, 1914S, 1915S, 1922, 1924D, 1931S.
If you don't wish to collect one of each for an album and prefer to sell the none key dates expect to get about 3 cents per coin from dealers less in certain areas.

I sold a 1955 penny (pretty new) for $25!!!
I still have one more and someone offered $15 but I declined.

That is very good since most MS-65 1955 cents sell for $1.00 or less. If it is a double-die they sell for much more.
If you want you can share the story of the sale like that others can see how it's done.

This is an advertising on money which is damage and has no extra value. This is probably a place that no longer exist in your area. The best I can say is try looking up old library maps and books that had this address in 1947. The internet will not help in this kind of search.
The only way it will have value if the clothing store became famous or was historically significant.

When my grandfather passed away last year we were going through his things and he has the complete set of wheat pennies from 1909 to 1940. How much would that sell for?

Assuming you have 1909-S VDB, 1922 no D, 1909-S, and 1914-D it's about $1,600.00 if you are missing these then $60.00 or less.
My dad checked them and he said that they are all there, Thanks so much for your help. My grandfather started collecting them in 1937, and continued until 2005.
My dad checked them and he said that they are all there,
That is great the value I quoted was for the lowest possible grade.
Those individual coins I listed could fetch more if they can grade higher.
Okay, thanks so much. I will see what my family wants to do with them.

There are several possibilities all based on weight.
Fake silver-plated weighs about 2.50 grams.
Off-Metal Error - weight is anything but 2.50 grams.
Missing Clad Layer error - weighs slightly less than 2.50 grams.
Only the final two have value.

I have a 1942 regular Canadian penny with the maple leafs. But the number one is missing from the date 1942 so it reads 942. their seems to be an extremely faint one but this coin has not been tampered with. has anyone heard of this? and would you have any idea of its value. I have been unsuccessful finding any such info on this coin so far.

This is just a weak strike or a Struck through Grease error.
Either way it has no extra value, about $0.03.
I just tore off a tin sort of silverish collored circle (It was tin since it was really light) that was around my penny and I'm wondering if I should have done that because it might have been a collectors Item of some sort, on One side it has "Keep mea and you will have good luck" and a four leaf clover and the other side says "You can't sell 'em unless you see 'em". So did I do the right thing?

I have a gold Indian Head Type 2 and 1/2 dollar piece that has a diameter of 21.6mm, a weight of 8.359 grams, a composition of 90% gold, 10% copper, and a reeded edge. Its date is 1908, no mint mark, but it has a small inscription under the head B. L. P. or just B.L.P. . It seems to be in uncirculated condition, since it is in a case that fits it perfectly, and it has no tarnish or stuff on it. From the human eye, it has perfect detail but under a microscope and a magnification of 35x there are very tiny indents that could be a mint error or could be because of just shaking a little bit in its case. Any way it is in very good condition and it's year is 1908, the case does not signify that it is proof or uncirculated but it looks excately like proof cases and maybe the sticker or plaque thing fell off. I have a 1998 United States Coin Prices book but since it is over ten years ago I don't know if its accurate. Could you tell me the value/ if uncirculated or proof or not about this coin?
Indian Head Type 2 and 1/2 dollar piece...1908...under a microscope and a magnification of 35x there are very tiny indents...if uncirculated or proof?
As you these are rare so the best thing would be getting it graded by a pro.
That said the sandblasting happened after minting and the indents sound right.
Check the rim it maybe "slightly wavy" or not even.
These proof have been faked but yours sound legit.
It would be $8,000.00 about $,750 if not a proof.
While gold proofs have been heavily studied I'm no expert even in hand, it should be graded.
Correction:
...about $1,750 if not a proof.

I have no intrest in collecting coins, but he said it was one of the rarest in his collection that was handed down... Anyidea on what its true value may be worth?

What mark does you have?
Hi yes Canadian,The penny had the rcm logo, and was non magnetic.Thankyou
2006-RCM Logo non-magnetic is normal and since 176,000,000 were made they are very common with no extra value above the $0.03 for the copper.
i have a 1949 copper wheat penny with no marking under the date in very fine condition how much is it worth
1949 copper wheat penny with no marking under the date in very fine condition
About $0.10
I have a 1947 with a few bag marks. There is no wear on the coin. The cheek, jaw, and stalks look perfect. The strange thing is the color of this coin looks like the new 2009 cent, bright and shiny. I suspected someone cleaned it, but there is no evidence of that. My question is should I have this coin graded, and what is the value.

Let's assume it grades MS-65 then it would be $4.00.
Higher than MS-66 or higher will be worth the price to grade but if cleaned then it's just a cent.
I suggest you have someone look at it before you submit or get a microscope and a grading book.
I have a 1956 wheat penny that has a raised and smooth edge. Like it was pressed too hard and the edges came up. It partially obstructs the "In God We Trust" at the top of the coin. Also it feels lighter than a standard penny and is much brighter and more orange/gold in color. Thoughts?
I should also add that there is no letter under the date to specify the mint.

The error sounds like a Cud which is about $5.00.
But it also sounds like damage, no extra value.
It should be weighed and if possible use a free photo site to upload a picture and drop a link.
I have a 1949 Wheat Penny, but is has a separate copper rim attached to it. It makes the penny a bit larger than a normal penny. Part of it is peeled back and it looks like it could be pulled off without much effort. Any idea what this extra rim might be about?

Sounds like this was once in a pendant or part of some other piece of jewelery, no extra value.
I have a 1947-D cent with a double mint mark (shift) it also has a die break at the base of Lincoln. Not in any books that I can tell. Has anyone heard of it?

1947-D cent with a double mint mark (shift) it also has a die break at the base of Lincoln.
There are 8 varieties all are about $2.00 in fine if true doubling.
But this may be deteriorated die that has little to no extra value.
U.S.A standing liberty quarter dollar the date is not visible
About $3.50 mostly for the silver content.

1977 Lucky 7 Leaf Penny Hair
I have seen a 1969 double struck cent, I have seen broadstrikes,
off-metals and off-centres coins. I have seen Double overlap and
partial brockages , underlap and overlaps. edge variable but I have never
seen anything like this before. The actual leaf is off and reappears on the
reverse in the Queen's hair. The missing leaf reveals the back leaf which is
always hidden , for the first time in my life I have seen the back of the hidden
leaf and so have you now also seen it for the first time. It looks perfect!
not just a portion of the leaf is missing , 1/2 or 3/4 but the whole part of the
leaf! . So I have seen the Devils hair and I am calling this one the.....

1977 Lucky 7 Leaf Penny Hair
This looks like either a Double Struck or a Die Clash.
I've never heard of this specific coin but I would guess it should be about $5.00 if a Die Clash.
Maybe more if proven to be a Double Struck.
Let me tell you Mr Man about why this type of error is unique beside the tricky stunt
of the flipover this Penny did when it was striked by the press and missed
to print partial of the leaf on the reverse and ended up striking it on the observe that is now being offered for over$50k .(PS on your $5 dollar offer. if you find onesimilar to this I will pay you 10K , e-mail me ok:) thanks:)
Really most overflipped double striked coin out there are common to see or
were, the observe is printed and so is the reverse + that reverse or observe then printed
on that opposite side showing then 2 sides on one, but partial print missing
and an overflip and struck on reverse is very uncommon or unheard of and
this partial missing print is the leaf which ended up in the Queen'shair + that
number 7 from the reverse date of 1977 for a total of three 7's and most of
us knows the definition of that meaning...lucky 7's. But then again overflip
or broadstuck coins , clips and off centres, double strikes , off-planchets(such
as 1 cent design on a quarter cent blank ) coins struck on foreigh blanks or
double denominations ( like a 10 cent design on a already struck 1 cent coin )
those types were error types a thing of the past after 1971 when the Winnipeg
plant opened his doors. The minting press had a new state-of-the-Art Press
whose feeding striking and ejection mechanisms made some error types obsolete.
The new presses, unfortunately for the error collector, eliminated a lot of errors
because the mechanical finger-feed mechanism was replaced by a 12coin
feeder that looked like the cylinder of a Smith & Wesson and you know what
that means. The sides of the chambers of the 12 coin feeders were designed
so that blanks could no longer jump out of their slots easily and cause
overlappingin the striking chamber to create brokerage. Again off-centres
became very scarce (R-4 = 76 to 200 examples )if not rare ( R-5 = 31 to 75 examples )
so after 1971 , 1972 and moving forward, the only errors advertised lately
are die varieties struck in some quantity , variations resulting from different
blank compositions, changes to the Mint logo ( with or without the "W" or the
" circle M " logo. or , most involving the two pieces of the $2 coins that overlapped
eachother. How accurate are my comments about the scarcity of Winnipeg-produced
errors? Well, have you seen a lot of errors lately?, other than the $2 coins?
Today , The Mint strikes all circulation coins in Winnipeg with excellent equipment
that has very sophisticated feeding and ejection mechanism.
The human inspectors were replaced by electronic inspection
equipment, which doesn't take coffee breaks and isn't distracted by
nearby employees. So here you have it, a 1977 Canada Lucky 7 Leaf hair Penny or
the " Pennache ".
As I stated a Double Struck would be worth more it would be $500.00 or more but with nothing to compare it to it is unique but not necessarily extremely valuable.
Your first eBay auction failed at $10,000 and know at $77,000+ it is also failing.
Good luck with that.
Remember everyone an easy way to be sure of what type of error you may have is to submit it for grading.
If it rare or unique then also submitting an article to a legit Coin Magazine/Paper will increase interest.
PCGS and Coin World are good choices.
How about a 1914s penny? Any idea s to the value?

If it doesn't look like the one from the link there is a second variety that goes for only $2.00.
over the years I have seen "stuff" on coins ...like tar,glue, etc.....is there something/some how to clean this stuff off without recking the value of the coin?

There are a variety of methods depending on the coin and the "stuff" but the most well known is acetone dips and distilled water cleaning.
Join any large coin forum and there you will see dozens of methods.
I have a 1940 wheat penny with an error. The 0 in the date is spaced out fron the 4 more then the other numbers. It actually looks more like a D than a 0 and it is on an angle as well. Does anyone have any comments?

Currency Exchanger but only if they are modern notes.
If the are older or obselete notes then uyou can sell them on eBay to collectors.
found a weird wheat penny. i know that the 1947 isnt very rare or valuable, but in fact very common. but i found i have one give to me by a friend that happens to be "encased" in a token. the front side gives a couple of date and the top says in big letters, "VICTORY" and the bottom in small letters says world peace. the back side says Wm. Y. Gilmore & sons and on the very bottom says oak park. if you could help that would be great. i have no idea and i am a coin collector as well but have never in my years come across this particular "token/coin". thanks a lot.

Not a token it is a souvenir from the Gilmore store in Oak Park, Illinois. It closed by 1976 so there is not a great deal online.
It is more likely a WWII historical item but I know little to nothing.
do you know any way i could find more info on it? it is is very good condition and was told it was a collectible. thanks for your help though
i could car less what it was worth. i just want to know its history. would like a lead of some sort. ive looked everywhere. heard good thing bout you though. hope you can help
do you know any way i could find more info on it?
Unfortunately this is more of an antique or it would be considered exonumia.
This is beyond my knowledge but if I would start research I would contact Oak Park based coin shops or clubs.
If not then the Oak Park historical society.
I have a 1943 steel wheat back penny with the s mint mark and was wondering if it is worth anything.
1943 steel wheat back penny with the s mint mark
About $0.40
I have a 1943-S zinc wheat penny where the "4" is basically completely missing (not from wear). Is there any notable value to it?
Thanks,Tammy
1943-S zinc wheat penny where the "4" is basically completely missing (not from wear).
About $0.45 the missing 4 is because of a weak strike or struck through grease it does not add any value.
2 1944's,1945,and a 1956 wheat penny really good condition, and then 1943 silver penny from world war II and an 1945 silver penny from world war II
same person as the silver penny person up top the 1944 don't have anything under the date the 1945 has a "D" under the date and the 1956 has a "D" under it and the 1945 silver pennys has a "D" on it and the 1943 doesnt have anything do any of those pennys have any value to them
wheat penny
1944 about $0.10
1945-D about $0.10
1956-D about $0.05
1943 silver penny not silver but zinc-plated steel about $0.35
1945-D silver penny this is either a fake or an error it should be weighed to find out.
thank you
Why did the mint make a little 1915 pennies? I saw on my Vol. 1 book that Philadelphia make about 30 million pennies that year & 75 million in 1914.
Why did the mint make a little 1915 pennies?
World War I, this is just theory but by 1915 the world was at war. Copper was going through huge price fluctuations and it was more profitable to sell copper than make coins. USA did not join the war until 1917 and by that time we were hoarding which why it went from 29 million to 131 million to 196 million.
After looking through many rolls of pennies, I came across a 1969S. When I examined it under the magnifying glass, and then with a 100x electric magnifier hooked to my LCD screen, I see a lot of doubling. Mostly in "LIBERTY", "IN GOD WE TRUST" and in the date. The 's' looks clear, though...
The penny is a bit rough on the edges, but overall, it's in pretty good condition. Any thoughts on the possible value, before I take it to a local coin dealer for info??
Thanks,
Andy

There are 2 varieties,
One shows strong double that is easily seen with the naked eye this one is very rare and is about $5,000.00.
One can only be seen under high magnification it is about $2.00.
was there a 1974 dd0? I have a nice shiny one that almost looks blurry on the date and 'In God We Trust'
Can anyone suggest any Lincoln Cents that I should always look for due to their market value??
Is 1972 penny that you can see two dates of any value? also, I can see two letters in other words.
I just found a 1951 Canadian penny that has "Georgivs Vi Dei Gratia Rex" on the front. In great condition, also. I've never come across one of these... Is it of any importance or value??
Thanks,
AR

Because of errors and varieties there are too many to list and the explanation would take too long.
Basically anything older than 1940 or looks odd could have value.
1972 penny that you can see two dates
I'm not sure what you mean, this could be an error but it sounds like machine double die or die clash which does not have any extra value.
1951 Canadian penny about $0.15 in very-fine.
I found a 1909 s penny. The front side looks pretty good, but the back is a bit rubbed off. When I looked for VDB, I thought I saw the letters, but with the wear I couldn't be sure. I used a high magnifier and could see a slight VDB.
Is this worth looking into?
Thanks,
Allison
what should I expect from a 1992 D penny? I have lots, and I read somewhere they're worth money.

Yes, in a low grade like good (G-4) it is $750.00.

It is just $0.01, there is a rare variety that has a close AM in the word AMERICA, that one is about $500.00.

ok...two quick querstions...
1.) I have a 2006 lincoln cent that is probably the 'prettiest' in the thousands I'm going though.
It's probably a proof coin? Or did they make all 2006's with mirror fields?
2.) I have a 1982 lincoln cent with strong doubling on the reverse. This coin also has a different metallic look to it. It's almost psychedelic, I guess you would say. Meaning, in different reflections I can see numerous colors.
Any info about pricing or just general info would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Andy R.
Also, could you tell me what 'querstions' means. lol
1.) I have a 2006 lincoln cent that is probably the 'prettiest' in the thousands I'm going though.It's probably a proof coin? Or did they make all 2006's with mirror fields?
Unless it has a little "S" under the date it is not proof. Probably a high grade coin, "proof-like" it would have extra value maybe $10.00 if graded MS-69 or 70.

There is one well known doubled-die reverse it's about $300.00 in low grade, the weird color is probably oil.
It should be verified.
