<p>[QUOTE="Sullysullinburg, post: 3279674, member: 73996"]I’m guessing “Tester” means test strike. From my fairly basics understanding, the mint will do test strikes, to figure out the correct striking pressure. A low pressure strike would leave weak and mushy details. This is not the case for this coin. This coin has been in circulation a long time, and been exposed to a lot. It’s still a Wheat Cent, so if you stick it with 999 others, you could still get 2.5 cents or so for it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
