    I think the person is praying that their wheat cent is worth more than the usual 5c. Unfortunately it isn’t.

    The "O" is opposite Lincoln's Bust on the obv.

    It's a very common occurrence to have that letter,
    and that area, weak, due to the depth of Lincoln's
    bust on the Die itself.

    It's very very common, and carries no 'error' premium.

    They're 'as struck'
