Have you seen this wheat cent

[Bob schaefer]

So while roll hunting last week I came across something I have not seen before 1950 d wheat cent the obverse looked normal but when I turned it to the reverse I was surprised to see what looks like to me to b pure copper with no zinc coating each side looks like a totally different coin and not 100% sure but I also think I can see a die clash that appears to be the wheat stalks on the obverse.im hoping i found something rare that would b exciting lmk please thank you for your time

They did not start using zinc until 1982 or 1983.
The coin you have is a normal copper coin.
Copper planchets were made into Lincoln cents from 1909 to 1982 or so.

As for the clash, I cannot make out anything with the current photos. Once I try to zoom in, it gets a bit blurry. Typically the clash shows up around the base of Lincoln. Sometimes the strikes are pretty strong, and a ghost like image may appear on the obverse and reverse, but it's not a clash.

The color on both sides of the copper are different on the obverse in the reverse sort of looks almost like in one of the pictures with the arrows that like the reverse was put into an average shell like it's two different pieces of copper I hope these pictures are better I know it's hard to tell without the coin actually in your hands and I'm not trying to argue at all I just look at it and see the difference it's like night and day when it's in front of me the two colors one on the averse different color on the reverse even a different texture

Typically, coins will tone, especially copper ones. If you live near high humidity or near large bodies of water, it can be dire straightforward copper coins unless they are well protected.

Toning causes the third party grading companies to grade the coin, a d they feel obligated to add colors as amplifying info. They are either red, red-brown or brown. Oxidation happens with most copper cents.
I've seen some really wild toning on Lincoln cents, from a coin that was completely shocking pink to one's that were dark chocolate brown.

Since your coin has a mint mark from Denver, it's not a proof coin. That means it's probably not a satin finish. It would have had to come from Philadelphia, and be minted with special dies..... IF they used satin finish style dies in the 1950s. But, since this is a business stuck coin, the satin proof dies are not applicable.

I suggest weighing the coin with a scale that goes down to one hundredths of a gram (x.xx). That gives you the more accurate reading and it does not round the numbers up. The weight should be close to 3.11 grams. This can vary, it wasn't an exact science, not even to this day.

I bought a cheap kitchen scale off amazon, and it cost under 20 bucks. It depends on your taste and what type are available.

Let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.
