<p>[QUOTE="l.cutler, post: 8250377, member: 13318"]Analysis on actual coins has shown quite a variance from what the alloy was supposed to be. Over 40% zinc and no silver seems to be the norm. The high zinc content caused all kinds of issues, I never saw one like this though. If it was anything but a Rosa I would say it was an electrotype, but might have something to do with the zinc.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
