1973 penny

It's yellow colored and it does stick to a magnet. Pictures arent the best. I will take more if needed. What do I have ? And please, I'm learning so please be kind.

It’s been plated with something. The fact that it now sticks to a magnet is a dead giveaway. A fun coin to add some novelty to your collection, but not an error of any kind.

 

Thanks

 

Where did the images go?

 

Sure sounds like it is plated.

 

Now there's an understatement.

 

It weighs 3.0g

 

There back now

 

It also has a very strong magnetic pull

 

Also looks like it has doubling.

 

Not seeing doubling. The plating is really shiny on this one though, could be a reflection.

 

It’s a 1973 so no plating but I do know what you mean.

 

I know it’s not a zincoln… she said it’s magnetic, that’s gotta be plating right?

 

That would make sense. I forgot she said that.

 

hey, it happpens to all of us… if you can’t have a laugh at yourself when needed who can you have a laugh at? Lol

 

Plating, Plating ,Plating! It's 50 years old.

 

She said it sticks to a magnet.. not that it was magnetic. So that's ferromagnetic plating. Altered Cent.
