They started making wheat cents in 1909, so that is an old one (for a wheat cent)!

1510 wheat penny? Please look at it closer. They were not minted until 1909. I think that you have a 1910 wheat. Good news is that if you are finding wheat pennies on your site then there is likely silver coins there as well. Good luck :icon_thumright:

That is by far, the best 1510 Wheatie I've ever seen. Can you imagine what the hold of that coin though. "Lincoln? Who the heck his he, and why is he on my coin". After all, it was 200+ years before he was born.

It certainly looks like 1510. But we all know it's a 1910. Nice find regardless.

doesn't matter, it's a great find. Now you get a crash course in coins and history. Get ready for a ride. You're off to a good start.
