<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Numismat, post: 3089948, member: 15019&quot;]1862 Zs-VL. I recently found out some very interesting info regarding this coin (thanks to realeswatcher and swamperbob from CCF for sharing the history). Apparently there was a large cache of 1860&#039;s and up cores, stripped of any silver coating, found near the site of an old silver reprocessing plant in Mexico. There were many such locally made crude pieces in copper, as well as some better quality brass pieces identified as European imports. This example seems to be the latter. It also has a rudimentary edge design which looks like donuts. Weight ~2.73 grams, brass.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]779499[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]779500[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
