Finished sorting a box and found my 2nd steel wheat. That's 2 in 1 week. This one is in decent shape for its age with a very heavy charcoal colored patina.

Also found this error, I don't have a scale accurate enough to tell if it is Cu or Zn.

Looks like it barely got stamped with the die.

What's the reverse look like?

looks like a brockage error. in the book it says if it is zinc it is worth around $38. if its copper, its worth around $25. nice find!

wow $38! I found one of those a while back. Isn't that caused by grease getting in the die?

The reverse looks perfectly normal.

$25-$38. I like the sound of that!

Since when is a zinc cent worth more than a copper one?
