Super Nice Unplated Zinc Lincoln Cent; Almost Completely Blue in Color

These are actually tougher to find than you think, even more so in mid-to-high MS grades.

Lots of altered ones on eBay and at shows. After studying and reading about these errors in depth, I have a good handle on spotting altered ones. I recommend you only buy certified ones if you don't study up on these.

As Don Cherry from Hockey Night in Canada often says, "What a beauty!"

Would that be a Die Crack through the E in UNITED?

 

It is actually. Those don't impress me that much.

 

OK.. well then.. I do like them

 

For me, I like errors when they are a bit more dramatic. Hope I didn't offend

 

That’s a nice find.

 

Looks like the zinc is starting to oxidize.

 

Nice coin Jcro57.

 

I don't care for zincs. But clearly this is an exception.
