1946 Lincoln Wheat Cent

This is a United States one-cent coin, commonly known as a Lincoln Wheat Penny, dated 1946. The obverse features the profile portrait of Abraham Lincoln designed by Victor David Brenner. The coin is composed of 95% copper and 5% tin and zinc, with a standard diameter of 19.05 mm. Visually, the coin exhibits a dark, mottled brown patina with significant surface oxidation and environmental toning that has obscured the original luster. There are numerous small contact marks, scratches, and micro-pitting across both the fields and the high points of the design. The date '1946' is clearly visible, though the 'L' in 'LIBERTY' appears slightly weakened by wear. No mint mark is present, indicating it was struck at the Philadelphia Mint. The overall condition suggests a circulated state (Very Good to Fine grade range) with heavy surface contamination. The rim shows minor bruising, and the relief of Lincoln’s hair and coat lacks sharp definition due to prolonged circulation and metallic degradation over approximately 78 years.
