I enjoyed your story of the wheat cent. I had no idea. But I believe your right. It was an inspection to me. I will never look at the penny the same way again. Thanks to you. Gene from Santa Fe new mexico.
Your research and sharing via this video are appreciated, I hope you keep at it, from a fellow Lincoln Cent collector.
Wow this is a master class in the Lincoln penny!!!!!! Great job!!
A short saying. See a penny pick it up, all day long you’ll have good luck.
I have wondered about why the wheat sheaves are on the LWC and your study and answer really makes a lot of sense.
So glad I stopped and watched your history on Mr. Lincoln Thank you !
I’ve watched three of your videos. And I like how you give a history lesson a long with the coins. I’m happy to support your channel ,keep ‘em coming bro… I’m 38 and 4-5 years into collecting and nobody I know in my small town collects so the only thing I can do is buy books and watch videos here and there a lot of misinformation on Facebook and other platforms…. Appreciate ya.

I accidentally stumbled upon this when researching coin varieties and errors and i thought, *why not? " After watching, all I have to say is, well done man well done! Highly informative. Awesome theory of the reason for the wheats (which I feel makes complete sense and was something I often wondered myself!" You have yourself a new subscriber!
Totally Agree !!

Oh! Thanks! I loved this video, learned a lot of american history. Increased my admiration to Abaham Lincoln. What a GREAT MAN.
Great video! Thank you!
I started my collecting of coins from the ground up also. Then learned a ton from those astute collectors as yourself. If you ask me Lincoln wheat “ Wheaties “ are very very undervalued period..
Buenos días desde inwood city New York.

Thank you 4 the history

Tyvm
I love 💕this.
I always pick up any coins on the ground and few years back I picked up a Indian head penny with the 1800’s year and this was around 1994 I remembered calling a coin collector in the yellow pages that’s correct yellow pages! and the person at the other line of the phone told me its only worth $20.00. I gave it to my Aunt for safe keeping( I regret giving it to my Aunt)
Yaaasss! Wow the yellow pages takes me back. Thanks for sharing; IMHO the story alone is worth more than just having the Wild Indian without any context!
1861 Lovett one cent coin ,but has Roman number 1. Instead of 1 cent
I have plenty of coins, five cents/ quarter. 1896 one penny I have one quarter 1776¬1976
Awesome info. And great info. I collect but don't have alot of experience in grading. I watched the barber fade away. Can you do and indian head cent fade away.
Absolutely, great idea! IHC coming up.
IHC video is now live! Enjoy.
thanks for the truth
The price of coins 🪙 is 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀I just a 1920 s for 200 Bux #LFG🚀🚀🚀🚀
You Sir are a great historian as well as a great orator.
Did you delete my comment on Linkhorn aka Lincoln the Rail Splitter? why ? did you check out the links ?
nope idk what happened.
👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏Good job🙏🙏🙏🇬🇪🇺🇸🙏🙏🙏🤝🙏🙏🙏
I have a similar penny like this one from 1935 is maybe cost something
I KEEP HEARING ABOUT THE 1912 WHEAT PENNIES ***
HOWEVER I FOUND A 1913 WHEAT PENNY *** BUT I HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT THEM ***
IS THERE ANYTHING YOU CAN TELL ME ABOUT IT ???
Hello and welcome! Congrats on your find! I recommend visiting the CoinFacts page on the PCGS website for descriptions of each individual coin/year/mintmark combo. 1913 has a similar story, and the ones minted in SF are the rarest. Happy hunting!
ผมมี1926D
tengo un penny del año 1950 cuanto me dan por el gracias
I had a perfect grade of this 1912 penny and some so called friend of mine stole it. 🥺
Oooo What a Jerk ! That Sucks !
I enjoy your comments, but it is really a cent not a penny. The late Arthur Romerhaus of Evansville, Indiana had dealt in coins since 1914, and he would bristle when we said penny. He told us that it was a cent, not a penny like Great Britain and Australia. He lived to be 96, and his knowledge was encyclopedic.
Thanks Jerry. I really wrestled with this one as I was making the video; cent versus penny. What I ultimately decided is that one cent is the denomination, and Penny is the colloquial name. Do you have a similar problem with calling a five cent piece a nickel? Even usmint.gov refers to it as a penny. I think that I’ll talk about this issue when I cover the mercury dime, because in my opinion, there are three units in American coinage: the dime, the dollar, and the Eagle. Maybe the cent is the fourth? Stay tuned, and thanks again.
I have 1892

You need to beef up on your civil war history.
Please explain, for a future video? Did I say something about Lincoln that was incorrect, or just not beefy enough?
