<p>[QUOTE="Poke, post: 554854, member: 17991"]I also have a 1985 D penny like this. I'm likely to believe that it is Zinc and it didn't get it's copper coating? What ever the makeup, the coin is silvery all the way through, and when placed in hand with a "normal" coin it sounds funny. Like aluminum. Or Something..... And it doesn't stick to a magnet. I've been asked that question before.</p><p>I found mine by chance, in a pile of 1943 steel penny's 16 years ago. </p><p>I have added a picture to my album: Poke's Pictures[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
