Description
1918 Wheat Penny Coin in Fine condition, some wear consistent with age, see photos. This vintage 1918 Lincoln Wheat Penny is housed and preserved in a standard 2x2 cardboard coin flip. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint during the final year of World War I (evidenced by the lack of a mint mark below the date), this cent features Victor David Brenner’s timeless portrait of Abraham Lincoln on the obverse alongside the inscriptions “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and 1918. The reverse displays the classic twin ears of durum wheat framing “ONE CENT” and “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” bordered above by the national motto “E PLURIBUS UNUM.” Exhibiting honest circulation wear and an authentic, rich brown copper patina, it stands as an evocative, century-old artifact of American history and numismatic heritage.
