<p>[QUOTE=&quot;laz, post: 6422, member: 53&quot;]It does not appear to be coated with Silver mercury as were many older Cents,it was a very bad and unhealthy experiment in the 50&#039;s &amp; 60&#039;s. Your Cent looks like it has seen alot of circulation,a warning signal. The Copper plating&nbsp; sometimes gets skipped creating a unplated error. I don&#039;t believe this is the case with your coin though.The Copper plating can be reverse electroplated off of the Zinc center and I think this is probably the case here.You should probably get someone with knowledge of errors to examine this coin in person.I don&#039;t think that any certification service will touch it since it&#039;s circulated.Sorry I can&#039;t offer better news, but this is a fairly common problem. ~ Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
