WHEAT PENNY VALUES CHART
77
The wheat penny was an American coin designed by the U.S. Mint from 1909 to 1958. The front of the coin has a portrait of Abraham Lincoln. The back of the coin has "ONE CENT", which is surrounded by wheat stalks on each side. They are commonly called "wheaties" or "wheat backs". The coin was designed by Victor David Brenner. The wheat penny took over the design for the Indian head penny. In 1909, there were only 284,000 1909 S VDB Pennies produced. This is the cream of the crop in the series. It has a base value around $550. Even low grades are worth a hundred or more. However, if you have a prime example of this coin, it may be worth thousands. Below is a complete list of values for every wheat penny made. The 1943 copper wheat penny is not listed because it is rare. It is worth thousands to tens of thousands of dollars. The 1955 double die wheat penny is also not listed. It is worth thousands.

Mentalist, so true. You wouldn't think so, but I would trade a penny for hundreds anyday. I would trade it for two cents!:) It is interesting to see how much they are worth. Thanks for coming by.
SusieQ, thank you for your vote and comment, as well as your time my dear. I hear ya loud and clear.
RC, you are very welcome. Thank you for coming by to see it.
Thanks for the very valuable information. I have some of these pennies saved up will have to take a look if there are any of the valuable one. Great hub!
You are very welcome Gypsy. Hopefully you will be able to find some that are very valuable! Thanks for everything Gypsy. See ya soon.
Now you have inspired me to take a look at my old coins and see what I have. Great information.
Homesteadbound, I am glad that you are inspired. That is great. I hope you find yourself a beauty!
Coin collecting can be a fun and also profitable business if one lucks out and finds those valuable coins still in circulation. Thanks for the current valuation of the wheat pennies. Useful information!
Hey Peggy. Thanks for coming by. I really do appreciate your comments and time. I have did my fair share but only a few common wheat pennies after about 10,000. I am glad with what I found though. It is something I enjoy.
Very interesting. The oldest penny I had was from 1959, the year I was born. I don't know what kind of penny as I lost it.
That was actually the first memorial cent. The wheat penny ended in 1958. There has been a few cases that the 1959 has the wheat tail back. This coin is very valuable, worth tens of thousands of dollars. Thanks for the comment.
