heres another one...

 

Seems like a wierd form of rust, Im almost certain its not made of steel or if it is its coated but it doesnt look like. I had a couple of these while CRHing and there just dirty unvaluable pennies, thats my opinion.

 

Oh and the third one is really bad, dirty and worth 1 cent, if you can get that.

 

if it was worth more is when i'de want to know the value.
thanks for the info....

i thought you were talking to me for a second there, had to look through that thread.....

 

what do you mean?

 

Corrosion. The pure copper layer on clad cents corrodes very very fast compared with the 95% alloy.

 

but all three coins are post 82s......

 

Wrong poster, and furthermore he's a kid, cut him some slack.

 

Sorry about mistaking you for someone else.

 

Yes, and they have a majority zinc core and a 100% copper cladding . In a moist environment with high sulfur content air, Corrosion can occur in less than a year. Some of the coloration made be from the inner zinc layer if the copper was pitted deep enough.

 

So is this to say that you do not want people to be truthful?

I did the same at first. Mistakes happen.


As for cutting kids slack, considering that this is an all-ages forum, everyone should be treated equal with very few exceptions.

 

thats cool, thanks for the info!
