    I went to a coin dealer to have him look at a quarter I had and I bought a couple things one was the set shown in third and fourth pic another was 1943 penny on right in first and second. Anyway the penny that came in this set looks like something out of a kids toy money set. Wondering if this is fake is there a good chance the other coins are as well.

    It's a normal steel Cent.. but looks reprocessed (re-plated)

    Not a fake. Just reprocessed. This was done with lots of steelies.

    The one in the set, although rather hard to see, does have the appearance of having been reprocessed. The first one does as well.

    The first one is from the set I took the coins out. But thank you for info.

    The one on the right he had marked as uncirculated. Can that even be verified. Do you think it would be classified as such.

    If the one on the right was reprocessed, even if it were AU, it would be AU-details
    as the reprocessing is damage.
    The steel cents are very plentiful and even in uncirculated condition they are only about 50 cents or so. A little more for the S.
