What?

 

There are silver proofs and copper proofs. It has nothing to do with polish. What are you talking about? More information.

 

i found a copper penny said silver on it was in a holder is it a weight thing or sumeone must of marked it wrong i guess

 

i am just beginning dont know much so just asking random questions bought coins i purchased ...long story i guess

 

A photo would help.

 

yes it would, of both sides please

 

1960 but was already told it doesnt exist so must of been marked wrong

 

What makes you think that is silver?

 

nothing like i said it was copper sorry if i wasted your time saw other copper coins online described as silver but i must be confuse ty for your time sorry for wasting it i am off

 

Not a waste of time at all. Please come back with any questions.

 

The only answer I can think of is zinc cents stripped of their thin copper layer are occasionally referred to as silver pennies, just like sac. $ are called golden.

 

These moods people come up with sure can be funny, even applicable, but in a fun way. Ha, ha!

 

Maybe it was from a silver proof set?

 

When I found it ..it was marked silver it has a shiny mirror finish on back a light dull spot

 

still curious... you say "it was marked" silver how was it marked? was it in one of those little cardboard squares with clear window? (we call those flips) with writing on the cardboard? was it part of as set marked "silver proof set"
Curious about your coin

 

It is copper, a 1960 Large date, proof
