Is there a seam line on the side of the penny? 1944?

What 1235ce said is correct. If it is a steel penny, it should stick or move with a magnet pretty easy. If it is just coated the penny might be to heavy for the magnet to pick it up. Take it to a dealer or get it graded. I hope it is authentic. Good luck and keep us updated.1235CE said:First, I really hope this coin is real......what scares me is that you said that the coin "is a little magnetic".....like just enough magnetic because it's been thinly plated......again, I really hope it's real and you're soon rich!

I have one of these as well 1944 S. Steely I call it. Its a wheat penny made with the wrong metal for the year. I've had it put up for at least 50 years. We have placed scan's and Videos on You-tube. But I still have not figuared out if I want someone to clean it or not. I assume a Jeweler or coin expert would do that. But I have refused and refused and been asked many times. Is there a such person that does this for the purpose. I mean knowing all the problems that the metal on a zinc cent has. Prone to rust etc.. Anyone know of values or service's like I have spoken about?
