Considering they didn't start making Lincoln wheat-ears till 1909, your penny is probably worth a fortune.... /grin

“gotcha beat...we’ve got a wheat 1903 copper penny!”

Are you sure it’s a “wheat” penny? The first year the “wheaties” were minted was in 1909, for the 100th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s birth.

Your 1903 copper penny should be an Indian head penny, no?
