Could this be a foreign planchette?

So I got this 1998 D LMC in my change today that’s larger than the normal cent.

However, it still the proper weight for this coin.

I also sandwiched the coin between to normal LMC so you can get a better idea, and I placed another LMC directly above so you can see the outline of the coin underneath.

Comments welcome! PS: I hope you all are in good health, and I wish y’all a Merry Christmas and a great New Year!

They call it a Texas Cent.. It was smashed and enlarged.. Which means it was altered after it left the mint.

 

It's been de-plated

The copper plating has been removed,
after the coin was in circulation.

Not an error of any kind, I'm sorry to say.

 

Thanks for the holiday cheer and returns to you.
Here is a copper Texas Cent.
