I scraped the edge a bit and i see that copper color coming through....someone just plated it i guess..
Here are two pics. Notice the interesing defect on the edege. My camera is low res.and does not show up that well. The defect is like a viod..
After browsing around the internet about Penney plating, I ran across this site, http://www.finishing.com/0000-0199/196.shtml .... Apparently...
Plated?...isn’t the copper all the way through.(alloy) Does the mint report errors they may have went into circulation?
Thank you for the response. Will try to get a pic of this penney. Dont know about the weight yet, but when dropped from about 2" it dont sound...
I have a 2004 penney with no visible copper content. its just silver in color like a dime. Can’t find any info on this. Was there any minted?
