<p>[QUOTE="Blissskr, post: 2253895, member: 34882"]Looks partially silver colored? I'd say it's a zinc coated chemistry experiment cent that they never heated making bronze (gold) and thus the zinc is rubbing off in spots. Or maybe the photos are just bad and it's a completely plated cent. Certainly looks like it could be based of the mushy details present on the reverse picture that tends to happen with plated designs losing some intricate detail.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
