1937 Philadelphia Mint Early Lincoln Wheat Cent Copper Coin INB Slabbed
Condition: This 1937 Lincoln Wheat Cent is presented in a circulated state within an International Numismatic Bureau (INB) holder. The coin exhibits a dark brown patina consistent with its copper composition and age. The surface shows visible wear on the high points of Lincoln's portrait and the wheat stalks on the reverse, though the date and major inscriptions remain legible. It is a business strike type, minted at the Philadelphia Mint as indicated by the absence of a mint mark. Composed of 95% copper and 5% tin and zinc, this coin represents a significant era of American history, minted during the recovery years of the Great Depression. The INB grading label identifies it within the 1930-1939 "Early Lincoln Cent" category but does not assign a specific numeric grade.
