<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jtwax, post: 40740, member: 696&quot;]Hi Rick,</p><p><br /></p><p>A neat little error. Your cent was struck on a &quot;thick planchet&quot;. My guess is the zinc is showing thru on the rims because the abnormally thick planchet was struck by dies set up to strike &quot;normal&quot; thickness planchets and that excess pressure caused a &quot;finned rim&quot; effect. The part across the date appears to be part of the finned rim that has partially broken away...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
