<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Dima, post: 920520, member: 18037&quot;]Without judging the authenticity of this piece: when I was much younger,&nbsp; I took some garden scissors to a Lincoln cent.&nbsp; Took me an hour or so&nbsp; to get through the whole thing, but I did end up cutting it (I later&nbsp; learned of some potential legal issues with this...)&nbsp; My cent looked&nbsp; similar to this - except it was ever so slightly bent due to the way I&nbsp; cut it.&nbsp; It&#039;s hard to tell the exact color from the pictures, but my cent was clearly &quot;silver&quot;-colored (zinc-colored to be more accurate) along the cut edge.</p><p><br /></p><p>If this is in fact a real piece, then the edge should be entirely plated the same as the rest of the coin, right?&nbsp; Because the planchet would have been clipped, then had the next layer applied -- right?</p><p><br /></p><p>Dima[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
