No, that cent has had some chemical applied to it. Those colors are not usually found naturally on copper coins, especially not with that appearance.
Is there a link to an article or story about this mysterious new specimen? And I think calling it the "11th" is deceptive. We should call it the...
I want to say - I just spent a very pleasant hour drooling over one of the nicest collections I've ever seen. That is truly amazing, and this coin...
Your two sets of photos almost seem to show two completely different coins. The first pic I was thinking it was a polished bright pink cent - now...
I think there is a bunch of crud in the loop of the 3, so you won't see anything there. However, the shaft of the arrow looks very promising.
There are tons of errors in Krause, especially in two categories: modern coins, and coins from Asian countries. Within a couple of years, the...

With the exception of the 1916D, even a complete date and mintmark set is achievable for most collectors. You may have to save a little bit for...
If I had these 9, but I knew that there was a tenth one out there, it would drive me crazy. I would have to have it.
The 100 greatest series are not worth buying. Save your money. They have some interesting stories, but aren't useful or important when starting to...
It is a cleaned AU coin. The price seems right... although $40.01 is oddly specific.
I wouldn't consider this spam, you're asking for help on a project. I don't collect these, so I can't help you - but I hope someone else here...
I want to get a prooflike example for less than $5k.....
When was the last time anyone used a penny for an actual transaction? Why are we making them at all?
