Description

The listing, 25 Wheat Pennies - Various Dates Plus a Free Set of 4 - "Mystery" Bonus Coins when you "Get It Now"! has ended.

I am giving away a Lot of 25 Lincoln Wheat Pennies in this auction. The Wheat Penny was designed by Victor D. Brenner (V.D.B are his initials on many of the coins) and was originally issued to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's birth. The Wheat penny was produced from 1909-1958.

These coins are made of .950 copper and .050 zinc. The only exception was in 1943 and a few in 1944, when there was a shortage of copper during WWII. The penny was then made of steel with a zinc coating.

The coins pictured above are just a sample of the coins you may receive. I am not a professional coin grader but most of the coins in this auction will be in "Good or Better" condition. There may be some minor flaws to these coins and light to moderate wear but overall they would make nice additions to any coin collection.

There is a low starting bid of only 100 credits! Plus the added option for "Get It Now"! If you are the winning bidder you will receive Free Shipping & Handling and Delivery Confirmation.

I will ship your coins within 2-3 days of the auction's end. So expect about a week for delivery. I will ship the coins in a plastic baggie and a bubble mailer for protection during shipping.

As mentioned before, there is an added Bonus, if you use the "Get It Now" feature on this auction, I will include a Free Set of 4 "Mystery" Bonus Coins to the winning bidder! "GIN" is only 7500 credits!

Good Luck & Thanks again for Looking & Bidding!

Nice Auction! Fanned & Watching... Please fan me back! I'm listing some things that I think you'll like!

I think you may have made a slight mistake in your description. As far as I know, the VDB initials only appears on some of the 1909 coins and never since.

Hi OldDogEyes, Thanks for your comments. The 1909 wheat penny is the only coin with the VDB initials on the reverse of the coin but in 1918 the VDB initials were restored to the obverse/face of the coin under Lincoln's shoulder sleeve next to the rim of the coin. You will need a good or better condition coin and I myself need a 60x magnifier to see the initials clearly, they are that small. :-) Fanning Back although I may have already fanned you before, I'll double check! Have a great day!
