Lincoln Wheat Cent Woody Error Streaky Alloy Planchet No Date AG Penny Error 1C

A woody cent shows parallel streaks of lighter and darker color across the surface, like wood grain. It happens when the copper alloy was not mixed evenly before the strip was rolled, and it is considered a planchet error made at the mint.

This exact Lincoln Wheat cent shows clear woody streaks running across the reverse and the lower obverse. The coin is heavily worn and corroded, and the date is not readable, so it grades AG Details in our opinion. The rim looks wider on one side, but we do not claim a misaligned die. Please view all of the close-up photos.

SHIPPINGEvery coin we sell ships in protective packaging — no exceptions. The exact container depends on the shipping class: for example, our Standard Envelope option is limited to a maximum of 1/4" thickness, so a bubble mailer isn’t used there. Instead, coins travel in a vinyl flip, a thick baggie, or a cardboard flip, whichever best protects that particular coin. We ship daily, Monday through Friday, excluding all USPS holidays.
RETURNS / GUARANTEEWe maintain (unless otherwise noted on items like bullion) a 30-day, FREE-to-you return policy. All we want is happy customers — if you don’t like what we send, just send it back, free of charge.
QUESTIONS? CONTACT USContact us Monday–Friday, 9–5 EST, with any questions or concerns. Our number one goal is happy customers who buy from us time and time again. If you ever have an issue, please let us know — and remember, our return policy above has you covered.
GRADING DISCLAIMERWe arrive at an approximate grade using a combination of our own years of experience and, increasingly, Artificial Intelligence (AI). We are not a professional grading service, and any grade shown is only an approximation — please make your own determination based on the photos provided.
