Copper plated.
I can see the zinc/steel showing through on the high points of the coin.

 

I bet it sticks to a magnet! Have you tried?

 

Yeah I tried the magnet on it. Sticks like glue. LOL. But I had to show it. I was leery as soon as I saw it and he was selling it. I E ded up with some nice coins though and a few steelies. I have one I'm going to post. I'm not sure what it is. I think it's off set.. But then it Lso looks like a strike error.I think they call it braod stroke?? Is than correct?

 

That sounds like a swimming technique

Broadstrike

 

What type of error!?

 

It's alot to learn.

 

Sorry but that is not a Mint Error. Smashed Cent
PMD - Post Mint Damage

You got to be.kidding. I was reading up on it and saw two on nickles just like if.

 

A nyway I got the whole wheat cent series. From 1909 VDB to ,1958.

 

Some damaged coins kind of look like certain Mint Errors. You just need the experience to know the difference. I have been collecting Mint Errors for almost 32 years now.

 

Since when did the Mint start making "penny nickels"?

 

I call that the "hammer to Lincoln" error.


Thanks,
Jacob

 

Maybe a terrible attempt at a Texas cent.

 

Not the same coin, but the type of error that looks similar.

 

From my collection -

But I understand what you mean

 

So what! If you happened to find a 1964 Chevy with a dent on the trunk, would it be the same as a 1964 Ford with a dent on the trunk?
