Hello,
I came across a very interesting wheat penny a couple of months ago and wanted to know if anyone knows anything in reference to this penny. It is a 1944 wheat penny with a different metal in the center . It looks like it could have been another coin in the middle but placed reversed . I have done some research and nothing shows up . Anyone out there that can help me?

Hello, Shaina --
Thank you for your patience in posting the images. This is some type of post-mint alteration, but I can't tell what the little plug says. It could very well have been a coin that was altered either for the sake of making jewelry or perhaps was a used as a promotional token for an organization, etc. At any rate, altered/novelty coins like this are sometimes worth a couple dollars, but the value would be on the higher side only if the origin can be determined.
I hope this info helps,
Josh
