I have a 1993 d steel penny

Look again, though -- the 1993 "coin" is the diameter of a nickel. Put a cent on top of it, and you can still see the whole rim, and then some.

(Think it could be “a Counterfeiter’s ‘Trial Error?’”)


(The coin is ever so slightly curved… if that is relevant in any way…)

 

Could it have started out its young life as “play money” or costume jewelry. . . (But then something went terribly wrong during delivery!?)

 

Weird. Is it thicker or thinner than a real cent? I'm guessing it's aluminum. (Hey, at least it's not lead!)

I thought it looked bent.
