<p>[QUOTE="IllMortalDeity, post: 540350, member: 17558"]I will upload better pics soon those were from my phone. It does seem like the penny shown in the pic with only partial plating. There is no wear or corrosion of any details. The only copper parts you can see on the coin are around the outside edge of the coin and two tiny risen parts that look like tiny copper ink blots in the obverse field behind lincoln's head. It looks like a regular struck coin in every way except for the lack of the copper layer. What would give it away as far as being effected or altered post mint in any way? The details are exceptional. I will post the new pics soon. Either way it is a very interesting coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
