1930 - 1939 Early Lincoln Wheat Cent Copper INB Slabbed
This listing features a vintage Lincoln Wheat Cent struck in copper, originating from the 1930 to 1939 era. This copper coin is preserved in a specialized protective slab from the International Numismatic Bureau (INB), featuring a distinct green label and a clear viewing window that showcases both the obverse portrait of Abraham Lincoln and the classic wheat stalk reverse design. As an early 20th-century copper specimen, this piece represents a significant period in American numismatics, offering collectors a tangible piece of history from the pre-World War II decade. The secure INB holder ensures the coin remains protected from handling while providing a professional presentation for any collection.
1930-1939 Early Lincoln Wheat Cent Copper INB Slabbed
Condition: This coin is preserved in an International Numismatic Bureau (INB) slabbed holder. The coin exhibits a heavily circulated brown patina with significant surface wear consistent with a piece that has seen extensive commercial use. Details on Lincoln’s bust and the "One Cent" wheat stalks are visible but flattened. The mint mark and specific date are difficult to discern through the holder due to the dark toning and wear. It is composed of a copper alloy (95% copper, 5% tin and zinc). Historically, these coins represent the Great Depression era of American currency, featuring Victor David Brenner’s iconic wheat reverse design which was used from 1909 to 1958. This is a standard business strike type. The INB holder labels the item as an Early Lincoln Cent from the 1930-1939 date range but does not provide a numeric grade.
