All US pennies minted 1909-1958 are wheat cents. 1953 fits into that time frame.

You can identify if a penny is a wheat penny from 1953 by looking at the reverse (tails) side of the coin. If it has two wheat ears framing the words "ONE CENT" and the image of the Lincoln Memorial, then it is a wheat penny from 1953. Wheat pennies were minted from 1909 to 1958 and are recognizable by the wheat ears on the reverse side.
