lol.

 

Reminds me of what they sometimes do to Mardi Gras doubloons...I used to have one like the upper left.

 

Meh, it's a Lincoln. There are hundreds of millions more where that one came from.

If they'd done that to one of the aluminum Lincolns, or something like a Stella, then I'd be riled up.

 

Did you study under Insider?

 

That cent would look perfect on the shelf between my Elvis plate and the rare Beanie Baby.

 

merrickmint.com uses Black Ruthenium on everything ...
it's usually the website I link when someone posts with a plated coin and wonder's who would do such a thing ....
