1944s wheat penny

2 posts in this topic

I found a 1944s Lincoln wheat penny today coin roll hunting. The coin is an odd copper color. Weighs 3.2 and sticks to a magnet. Could it be the 1944s steel penny.

From the way it looks it is most likely plated.  You say it is magnetic.  How magnetic?  Does it just stick to the magnet, or if when the magnet is brought toward it does the coin JUMP to the magnet?
