Seven (7) 1944 Lincoln Wheat Cents ? Including Multiple 1944-D Issues - Group of seven 1944 Lincoln Wheat cents, primarily Denver Mint (?D?) examples as noted on holders. Struck during the final full year of World War II bronze coinage following the 1943 steel cent experiment, the 1944 issues were composed of 95% copper and 5% zinc (using recycled wartime shell casings), weighing 3.11 grams each. The 1944-D recorded a substantial mintage of 430,578,000 pieces, making it common in circulated grades but consistently popular with collectors assembling Wheat cent albums. Obverses display Abraham Lincoln?s right-facing portrait; reverses feature the classic wheat ears design used from 1909?1958. Surfaces show natural brown to dark chocolate patina with moderate circulation wear; several pieces exhibit stronger detail than others within the group. A solid mid-20th century Wheat cent accumulation ideal for album fillers, beginner collectors, or bulk copper enthusiasts. Condition: Mixed circulated grades, approximately Good to Very Fine overall. Dates and mintmarks visible; moderate wear typical of circulation. Sold as a group of seven.
