<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Oldhoopster, post: 3102098, member: 84179&quot;]I strongly suggest you save your $50-100.&nbsp; Something happened to this coin AFTER it left the mint.&nbsp; There is no step in the minting process (including planchet fabrication) that would yield a coin like this.&nbsp; You can do the research yourself and learn the minting process if you have doubts, but once you understand it, you&#039;ll see that it couldn&#039;t have been made by the mint.</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, since authentic 1943 copper cents are rare, the 3rd party grading services rely on outside experts for authentication if they believe there is any chance of the coin being authentic.&nbsp; These are people with world renowned expertise in the field of numismatic errors and whose opinions/conclusions are widely recognized by numismatic community.&nbsp; With that in mind, you may want to reread Post #20 in this thread[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
