<p>[QUOTE="lawdogct, post: 19321, member: 1476"]I also have a 1989 copperless penny I found in some spare change. The biggest clue, IMHO, to the copper being removed after minting is the "ridged edge". If a copperless zinc planchet was minted, the zinc should be pressed all the way out to the collar, giving it a more normal looking smooth edge.</p><p><br /></p><p>Hmmmm......same date, both on the east coast, I wouldn't be suprised if both our coins were stripped by the same person. Fun oddity at any rate.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>

Hmmmm......same date, both on the east coast, I wouldn't be suprised if both our coins were stripped by the same person. Fun oddity at any rate.[/QUOTE]
