1920-1929 Early Lincoln Wheat Copper Cent INB Graded Slab
Condition: This specimen is housed in an INB (International Numismatic Bureau) slab, which classifies it as a circulated early Lincoln wheat cent from the 1920s decade. The coin exhibits a dark brown patina consistent with aged copper and shows visible wear on both the obverse portrait and the reverse wheat stalks, indicating it spent time in general circulation. The metal content is a copper alloy, typically composed of 95% copper and 5% tin and zinc for this era. Historically, these coins were designed by Victor David Brenner and represent the post-WWI era of American commerce. This is a business strike type coin rather than a proof. While the holder identifies the date range and series, a specific numerical grade is not visible on the provided label.
