<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jbruce, post: 2577288, member: 76919&quot;]It brought me confusion all day yesterday. I had to put it up here for others opinions. Thanks for your reply Sam_raph, I&#039;m with you. It&#039;s a head scratcher. The metal doesn&#039;t even sound right for bronze, when tapping it. </p><p><br /></p><p>One thing that crossed my mind is that it comes from WW2 era. So perhaps like the U.S. Coins (wartime nickel and steel penny) there was a shortage and used a different metal. However, all of them would be minted like that and on that webpage there were almost 29 million minted during 1942. That theory can easily go out the window. Then again, this coin could have been tested using a different metal for that time period in case of a shortage.</p><p><br /></p><p>Whatever it is, it will be eating at me the rest of the year. Maybe that&#039;s why I left it in a box, so I could forget it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
