This is the first wheat cent I have had so far this year thus the title. Its a 1954-D Lincoln Wheat Cent a.k.a. Wheat Penny. I found it earlier today along with another 2012 $0.01 coin (I'm up to 8 now) and some common change. It is worth only $0.03-$0.05 because the reverse is really scratched up and worn.

Goodbye Forever, Canadian Cent :(
Yesterday was the last day of striking of Canadian pennies. According to the Royal Candian Mint the penny is "...ultimately a burden on Canada's balance sheet...". More articles here, here, here, and here. I will miss the Canadian penny since it was my most common Canadian find . Au revoir Canadian Cent.
