Plugged Die? Zincoln

Log in or Sign up to hide this ad.

This 1943 with the missing number 4 is common in these steel cents. It is caused by a Struck Through Grease. They have been a few posts about this same Cent. Value.. about $1.00-$2.00. Nice Find! Like you asked "a plugged die" yes plugged with grease buildup!

 

Thanks!

 

Not a Zincoln, but a Steely.
Zincolns only came into existence in 1982.

 

Thanks my confusion is due to the spot in my 7070 album where it calls for a "zinc" 1943

 

What about the 1943 copper zinc coated cent?

 

They are steel planchets, with a zinc coating to keep them from rusting. Just like galvanized nails. Steel with a zinc coating to prevent rusting.

 

The zinc never covered the edge, though.

 

all this zinc talk about the 43 really makes me want to keep calling them zincolns lol

 

I refer to the Zincolns in the 82-forward cents because they are mostly zinc. On the 1943's I call them steelies as they are mostly steel.

 

Thanks! I am still new to this and learning more and more everyday.

 

Blatantly offensive arrogant avatar. Gradeschool bullying disguised as Inappropriate "humor". Who could think that is funny?

 

i like to think hes looking at and addressing me. I think its funny. edited

 

Your avatar (as well as your post quoted above) gives the impression that you think yourself smarter and better than everyone else. I agree with @EagleEyez. You may be amused, but I'm sure there are many more here that are not.

 

When you use derogatory terms to describe the developmentally disabled, or any other group of people, you reveal a lot about your own character. Your personal insult directed at me is not welcome.

 

Thanks for standing with me @rickmp. Glad to be a part of a forum that has some values.

There's no need for this. Reported as a personal attack.

 

No, actually. But I am human.

 

no attack just an observation. Youre welcome to correct me
