What condition would you say that coin is in. If in really nice condition, it may well be a coin just plasted with something. If Silver and at...
I would say yes. Minor, but a slight DD.
Well it was Mother's Day but thought I'd try the usual every second Sunday coin show around here. The weather forecast was for cloudy and rain so...
Lot depends on what you plan on doing with that coin and what you paid for the thing. If for a collection, just cut the thing open. but you sound...
Give it the magnet test. If it jumps to a magnet, then for sure it is a 1943 Lincoln Cent. If not, HMMM. then we have something there.
Stay far, far, far away from those type of coin dealers. Try to remember that anything you buy that is largely advertised, you will end up paying...

No idea where you live but that is a shame no shows in your area. If you do go to a coin show, it is a good idea not to run around with a Red Book...
