1954 Lincoln Wheat Cent Copper Coin INB Slabbed
1954 Philadelphia Lincoln Wheat Cent Copper Coin INB Slabbed
This 1954 Lincoln Wheat Cent is a classic piece of American history, struck in copper and featuring the iconic wheat stalks on the reverse. This specific coin has been professionally housed in an International Numismatic Bureau (INB) slab, featuring a white core and a distinctive green label for preservation and display. The obverse showcases the timeless portrait of Abraham Lincoln, while the reverse displays the "One Cent" denomination flanked by wheat ears, a design that was phased out just a few years later in 1958. As a mid-century copper issue, this coin is a staple for any collector of the Lincoln series looking for an encapsulated specimen.
1954 Philadelphia Mint Lincoln Wheat Cent Copper Coin INB Slabbed
Condition: The coin is presented in a circulated state with a brown patina consistent with its age and copper composition. It shows visible wear on the high points of Lincoln's portrait and the wheat stalks on the reverse. The coin is housed in a protective holder from the International Numismatic Bureau (INB), though no specific numeric grade is assigned on the label. This 1954 business strike was minted in Philadelphia, as evidenced by the lack of a mint mark under the date. Composed of 95% copper and 5% tin and zinc, this coin represents the classic "Wheat Penny" design created by Victor David Brenner, which was used by the United States Mint from 1909 until 1958. This specific year falls toward the end of the wheat reverse era, making it a staple piece for collectors of 20th-century American numismatics.
