<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hookman, post: 7520772, member: 99642&quot;]After digesting Fred&#039;s explanation, I would say there is <i>no</i> coin there. There is simply the thin copper shell described by Fred, said shell (very thin piece of copper) having been struck after being placed between an already struck 1963 cent and the hammer? die. Neither the original 1963 cent nor the hammer die moved or changed position prior to, or during, the second strike.&nbsp; The copper piece was so thin that it actually <i>wrinkled</i> from the force of the strike.</p><p><br /></p><p>That is my best guess and I owe that guess to the astute obversational powers and the almost magical knowledge of Fred Weinberg, that he has gathered, gleaned, and gained over the many years he has spent in this most serious of Sciences, in this most habit-inducing of Hobbies, and in this most enjoyable of Endeavors, Numismatics.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
