<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bigd, post: 80439, member: 1800&quot;]Here is an attic find that has me baffled. This 1953 D Lincoln appears to be Aluminum or silver. It absolutely is not plated. The &quot;third side&quot; has a tiny ding and you can tell it is the same material through-out. I have heard about plateing,,,, have heard about aluminum prototypes,,,,,and have heard about struck on wrong planchets..(What I&#039;m leaning toward) But,,, have taken some vitals and am hopeing some one can help. Some of you guys are extremely knowledgeable and I appreciate all the readings thus far but now its time to help me out. LOL. This coin is very thin and really resembles a dime size. I weighed a 1949 and it weighed 3.0498 grams and measured 19 mm. This penny wieghs 2.5570 grams and measures 17.9 mm. Any ideas,,,,and whats my next step. Any help is greatly appreciated. If this picture is to small. E-mail me at <a href="mailto:bigdcoins@hotmail.com">bigdcoins@hotmail.com</a> and I will reply with bigger picture.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
