I found in a box I had stashed away a 1969 S lincoln that only weigh's 2.0 grams and is 50-75 % the normal thinkness of a normal cent. the obv under a microscope looks orange peeled, but all of the details are the correct hight from surface to ear, so it is not scraped off. the edge has NO line on it so it is not a magic coin. and the rev is all there and looks normal. Pics to come tomarrow
Ok, Forgive me but how does that(acid) work? because the coin still has all the details. and the surface to ear are the same height as a normal cent, would not the acid eat the coin and make it flat? Never seen an acid coin so just asking
That's what fools a lot of people. But when placed in acid everything is eaten down equally. All the details on a coin are not just on the surface - they go pretty much all the way through.
