Does it look like this?

 

Yes exactly like that.

 

With a "D" mint mark?

 

Yes a D mark it's I very good condition. My father had it put away.

 

Were would be a good place to take it or even call to ask questions?

 

Right here.

 

Do you have any pictures of it you can post here?

 

It's not letting me upload the pictures

 

If you have a picture on your computer, use the "Upload A File" button and select "Full Size"

 

That honestly looks like some coating since I can see some wearing away. What does it weigh...if you don't have a balance, balance a popsicle stick over a pencil and place your cent on one side and another cent on the opposite side and see if it weighs the same.

 

Semi gloss or flat?

 

fake. coated.
