The "N" in united is a deep valley font!
Looking at the inside Wheat ear about mid ways it appears to show the counterfeit die chip (bump)

The overall appearance of the coin is suspect.

Yep!
Look at the marked areas, the bump at the inside line of the Wheat ear, and that rim

It’s fine to focus on some of the particulars. However, in this case, also take a look at the entire obverse and reverse - the lettering, all of the (poor) design details, etc. It’s a very poorly made copy.

Yep! but I like to point to at lest something as a known counterfeit marker to help others.
I could have said, this one has Counterfeit All Over It
Thanks Mark

With that wrong N font that's all you need to know..

Seller listed as "1909 S VDB (Weak VDB) Lincoln Wheat Copper Cent"; @MarkW63 , it isn't the elusive "whispering VDB" is it
?
If its a VDB at all I'd say its at lest "elusive"
