The Wheat Penny was desgined at the behest of President Theodore Roosevelt, who lamented the lack of artistic merit in U.S. Currency. Roosevelt originally chose sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens, a noted sculptor, to design what became the Wheat Penny. However, when Saint-Gaudens passed away, the job fell to Victor David Brenner. Roosevelt felt that the new cent should honor his fellow Republican Abraham Lincoln because of the impending 100th Anniversary of Lincoln’s birth, which came in 1909. Both the obverse and the reverse of the Wheat Penny were designed by Victor David Brenner, who featured a profile of Lincoln on the obverse along with the word ’Liberty’ and the motto ’In God We Trust’. The reverse of the features two ears of durum wheat, which give the coin its common name, as well as the Latin phrase ’E Pluribus Unum,’ which means ’out of many, one.’ The inclusion of Brenner’s initials on the reverse of the coin also caused significant controversy upon the release of the Wheat Penny. Due to a public outcry, stoked by a bit of yellow journalism, the initials were removed from the coin until 1918, when they were placed on Lincoln’s shoulder next to the rim.

A ’grade’ defines the condition of a coin. It is a notation use by collectors. Specific qualities are inspected as to the amount of wear and compared to the standard for the grade. Key areas are used to judge surface quality. The following images help visualize these differences when judging a wheat cent for condition.
Begin the grading process with an overall opinion of the coin. Pleasing tones of tan and brown are preferred by collectors. Follow with comparing your coin to the images finding a condition match.
Uncirculated Grade: A mint state - uncirculated coin is separated from all others by one critical factor. No wear to the surface has taken place.
Helping judge this grade is luster remaining on the high points of the design. Inspect Lincoln’s cheek and jaw lines. These areas are prone to wear and if any delicate luster is removed a smoothing effect leaves a dullness to the metal. Compare the ridge lines of cheek and jaw to surrounding areas to see the difference in texture.
The 1955 penny remains bright with luster, a helpful advantage in seeing fine grains to a surface without wear. Tilting the coin at an angle also helps to confirm no areas of smoothing due to wear.
Evaluate Toning and Value of 1955 Penny: Next feature changing the eye appeal and value is color and toning of the surface. The 1955 penny with original luster is untoned. The moderate toning on the center coin is beginning to cover Lincoln’s portrait and lends a pleasing highlight to the design.

Extremely Fine Grade: As a penny circulates light wear begins to show. First quickly removing luster and brightness. Next small amounts of metal from the high points are rubbed off. If saved early, and the coin remains just lightly worn, a grade of Extremely Fine is awarded.
Compare your coin to the image, notice Lincoln’s cheek and jaw are beginning to lose a small amount of roundness to their profiles. Flat areas are evident on each, these are small and confined to the tops of the curves.
Helping add eye appeal are the soft brown tones of color on the surfaces of this coin. Lincoln and lettering along the rim are highlighted by a subtle deeper brown of the fields. A solid, extremely fine grade wheat penny with original vintage look appealing to collectors 1955 D Wheat Penny Value
