My mother in law gave me this 1953s and 1953d penny with a silver on it. Is this one of the error coin?

Need pictures if you have them.

 

Got any pics?

 

Most likely just plated, and actually quite common. No numismatic value.

 

Weights of the coins would be much more helpful than pictures.

 

When I was in the Navy way back in the 1900's, we used to make Silver Pennies" when we were board. Used silver solder on a new cent and Viola one silver penny into circulation.

 

Or, the copper layering missing?

 

Cents were solid copper alloy until 1982...
Were talking about earlier pennies here.

 

They are very found often. I have no idea of what the story is behind them. here is one I have

 

Could be the result of this experiment: http://www.metacafe.com/watch/1262456/make_a_gold_penny/

 

A little bit of silver on it like this one? or is it uniform like it could be plated?

 

solder drip?

 

I have one as well same year but very shiney silver looking.

 

Is that silver level or raise to the rest of the coin? I am not sure you can tell, but does it go over the edge? My first tale is that it is a strike through, but then it is hard to tell from pictures.

 

what's the story there robbudo?
