Lincoln Wheat Cent - Background & Design:
The Lincoln wheat cent was introduced in 1909 and minted each year until 1958 with the “wheat ears” reverse design. This represented the first U.S. coin issued for general circulation to depict the likeness of an actual person, as all previous series had depicted various renderings of Liberty. The obverse depicts the familiar likeness of President Abraham Lincoln, while the reverse depicts two stalks of wheat.
Lincoln Wheat Cent Grading Scale & Guidelines:
As understood and in relation to condition notes and guidelines, a Lincoln wheat cent in a "Brilliant Uncirculated" condition may have some imperfections, but overall, there should be no wear and flatness to any high points of the coin. All elements of the coin should be visible and prominent with detail.
Obverse: The luster remains on cheek below Lincoln's eye. His beard is free of smoothing from wear. On the front edge of the coat, its high relief maintains luster. Lincoln's cheek and jaw no signs of wear is visible.
Reverse: The delicate frost of a newly minted coin should be evident on ONE CENT. The grains of wheat are high points and remain without wear or dulling. Luster is continuous across the field below the lettering showing no signs of wear or flatness.
