A Rare Find for Error & Wheat Cent Collectors!
Up for sale is a striking 1937-P Lincoln Wheat Cent Penny featuring a prominent "Woody" (Improper Alloy Mix) error.

• Visuals: Heavy, distinct wood-grain "striping" across the obverse and reverse—highly sought after by error specialists.
• Grade/Condition: Circulated (Estimated VF/ Very Fine). The coin has great character and honest wear, with the alloy error remaining the star of the show.
• Strike Type: Business Strike
Why Add This to Your Collection?
