Description
1930 Wheat Penny in Good Condition, See Photos. The 1930 Wheat Penny condition represents a coin that has spent decades in active circulation, witnessing the onset of the Great Depression. It is composed of the classic pre-war bronze alloy 95% copper and 5% tin/zinc, giving it a rich, warm tone when found in higher grades. Because these coins circulated heavily through the 1930s and 40s, finding one with "Red" (RD) original mint luster is a particular treat for enthusiasts, as most surviving examples have transitioned to a deep chocolate brown.
