1. How many years difference between these coins? 2. Which one is older? Coin 'A' or coin 'B'? And why? 3. Who do you think will come the closest with their answer?
Coin A is clearly an early Wheat Cent. Rim thickness is a dead giveaway. Coin B is an earlier date Zincoln, judging by zinc rot and overall brownness. I'll guess 70 year difference. 1918 for Coin A and 1988 for Coin B.
What i am trying to do is pick you guys brains. See what it is that you see or notice and why it is. Trying to wrap my bead around the extremely large definition and application pool of things that come into play with coins. Thanks for participating
