<p>[QUOTE="HandsomeToad, post: 361259, member: 12965"]I agree! However, what was not told or shown is what year was the reference penny? The only year that would properly work would be a 1978 Lincoln Cent. Any other cent leaves more room for questions.</p><p> </p><p>Ribbit <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p> </p><p>Ps: For all the Doubting Thomas's, take a Lincoln Cent and Jefferson Nickel and compare thickness to one another then look again at the edge photos. How can the Jefferson Nickel possibly be THINNER than a Lincoln cent without the obverse/reverse also being whittled down considerably? I see do damage to either surface and the only possible reason I can see is it was struck on a copper planchet and because it overlapped the planchet the die "squished" the planchet and the result was a Jefferson Penny thinner than a regular Lincoln Cent, but I still await certification to know for sure.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
