<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 436320, member: 112&quot;]Anything is possible Joe.

Neither could I. </p><p><br /></p><p>But when I see metal of two different colors as the result of a hole being punched thru a coin - that tells me that the coin is plated. And fugio cents were not plated.</p><p><br /></p><p>Could it be corrosion, yeah maybe. But why would the corrosion stop at a fixed line like that ? It doesn&#039;t make sense.</p><p><br /></p><p>You touch the inner part, the part that is a different color, with a straight pin, scratch it, and see if it that color comes off. I&#039;m betting it won&#039;t. </p><p><br /></p><p>And don&#039;t worry, you are not going to hurt the coin by doing this. Kind of hard to damage a hole.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
