<p>[QUOTE="snaz, post: 1797485, member: 11315"]Hey everyone, long time no chat with ya'll. I have a cent I'm not sure which planchet it was struck on. In 1972 The Canadian mint minted the Venezuela five centimos coin, which should weigh in at 2.5 grams, and this cent is weighing in at 1.65 grams. That seems like a pretty large difference. so I don't think it would be that one. Any suggestions?</p><p> </p><p>The coin has a weak strike, and shadowing around the date. It seems the denticles are even around the entire edge, so the planchet seems it was lined up well in the chamber. </p><p><img src="http://i.imgur.com/5Q2HyAr.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p> </p><p>Here is the error cent on the left compared to a regular cent on the right.</p><p><a href="http://i.imgur.com/5Q2HyAr.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://i.imgur.com/5Q2HyAr.jpg" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://i.imgur.com/24Ie3kph.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
