    Definitely plated. My guess is with mercury. And, yes, it is worth something. It is a copper Lincoln so it is worth 2¢ or 3¢ if you are lucky.

    And this is why I wish old, dormant threads locked themselves.

    You will have better luck if you start a new thread. Take some good images and weigh the coin first.

    The 36-S is damaged and has been cleaned.
    The "steel" 1936 are plated as there were no steel planchets before 1943.
    LONG LIVE THE NECRO THREAD! YAY!

    I have to give credit to new members that use the search feature here for information on a topic. Too many don't bother.

    Quite true, Larry. I should maybe lay off of them for that reason.

    I have a penny that definitely has an error.. Looks like a rabbit. I'm going to get it graded no matter what anyone tells me. And I won't share what the results are neither! :lock:
