[QUOTE="Mirza Beck, post: 2171229, member: 32583"]Friends, Welcome! Here is coin I found a few years ago. When showed to a expert online with AllExperts he said " I looks like a Toy..." that its not real. The coin shows reddish appearance especially in the Reverse. And it has a strange thin black bead running on the side Edges. What does this mean..? I know the US mint did attempt to make a very different cent with the rising cost of copper with using Aluminum . If this is different allloy used .....would it ADD to the value..? Appreciate your views and advise. The surface of the coin does not appear like a normal US cent of the age to me. A articel on Aluminum aging said that it turns RED with age.......just a science fact online. While touching the coin the surface and look does not look like a normal business strike would.Why? God Bless, Beck. Lincoln Cent Treasure Hunter[/QUOTE]
