<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Oldhoopster, post: 7843044, member: 84179&quot;]Here&#039;s another trick.</p><p><br /></p><p>The sheets used for 1943 cents were plated before the blanks were punched (unlike the zinc cents which are copper plated after the blank is punched). The entire edge is exposed steel. Depending on the storage conditions, the steel can have a different toning than the zinc plated surfaces.&nbsp; Reprocessed 1943 cents are completely replated including the edges.&nbsp; Not every original coin will exhibit a color difference, but it&#039;s another piece of info to keep in your tool bag.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
