<p>[QUOTE="alurid, post: 5266983, member: 81991"]Your coin looks like it could be a legitimate error coin. Any type of abrading would damage the design details and leave copper in the small nooks and crannies of the design. Acid would not leave plating at the top of Abe's hair and remove it at the edge of the design that is the top of his head. The stretching of the metal during the striking would produce an effect of separating the plating. The details are sharp to the eye, which make it look to be struck without plating.
