    I have a 1940 wheat penny that is missing the "s" in states. I can't find anything close to this coin online. It is in excellent condition. Where could I get this coin graded which is inexpensive?

    Missing letters is usually the result of a weak die strike or filled die. There is generally not a large premium as this is not all that uncommon an error.
