1936 Early Lincoln Copper Wheat Cent INB Slabbed
1936 Early Lincoln Copper Wheat Cent INB Slabbed
This 1936 Lincoln Wheat Cent is a classic piece of American numismatic history, struck in copper and preserved in a professional slab by the International Numismatic Bureau (INB). The obverse features the iconic profile of Abraham Lincoln, while the reverse displays the traditional wheat stalks that define this beloved series. This specific coin dates from the "Early Lincoln Cent" era of the 1930s, making it a desirable addition for collectors focusing on pre-WWII copper coinage. The coin is housed in a secure INB holder with a green label, ensuring the protection of its surfaces and providing a clear display for any collection. As a genuine copper penny from the Great Depression era, it represents a significant period of United States minting history.
1936 Early Lincoln Copper Wheat Cent INB Slabbed
Condition: The coin appears to be in circulated condition with significant surface wear and a dark brown patina. The high points of Lincoln's portrait and the wheat ears on the reverse show flattening, and the overall detail is softened. The metal content is copper. This is a business strike type, minted in 1936 at the Philadelphia Mint as it lacks a mint mark. Historically, the Lincoln Wheat Cent was designed by Victor David Brenner and issued to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's birth. This specific piece is housed in an International Numismatic Bureau (INB) slab, which identifies the era as 1930-1939 but does not provide a specific numeric grade on the label.
